A Grand symphonic adventure
This album provides a quick exposure to some of the best movements in the best symphonies. Many of the tracks will sound familiar. They are played well and have good sound quality.
As a novice musician, i have great appreciation for it.
Surprisingly good!
When I purchased this CD I expected an album of average performances and OK sound. What I got though was 25 superbly clear stereo tracks rendered by quite competent orchestras.
Points of criticism here are minor ones.
Six Beethoven excerpts and only one of Brahms; an example of his magnificent 4th Symphony being conspicuously absent.
No actual liner notes, and the two pages of contents are printed in an exceedingly small font.
Hearing these favorite strains whets the appetite for the complete works, so the job of a "sampler" is well-fulfilled here (not a criticism!).
In summary, you will find this melange of edits from the VOX catalog most satisfying indeed!
TOTAL RUNNING TIME: 79:02
Also recommended:
25 CLASSICAL DANCE FAVORITES is a lively collection of familiar music.
