Customer Reviews

Great Deal to get introduced to Mozart's Music.
This is a fantastic deal, no question.

Just consider:

1)The performers are not of top rank - although they are perfectly adequate. Just not the best, so you aren't going to get a transcendent or particularly uniquely interesting performance.

2) You don't hear complete works - just movements. This isn't much of a problem if you are just popping this into your iPod, and putting it on random play along with your Coldplay and Metallica.
3)The excerpts are the ones you hear the most already, so if you are like me, the music isn't exactly fresh. But I am a bit of Classical Music Geek.

If you want to get exposed to Mozart's repertoire, this a great way to do it - but use it as a sampler - find out what you really like, and then track down a better recording of it and then listen to the complete work.

Life's too short to spend your time listening to mediocrity.

Despite the above caveats, I am going to give this 5 stars, because the deal is just so spanking good.

Who can't enjoy Mozart?
There is no question about the beauty in Mozart's music. Thus no
comments there.

Regarding the collection: a great one. Definitely worths its price.
Just consider the time it would take to convert your Mozart CDs into
a collection like this one. (I bought the collection when Amazon had
a $3.99 promotion but even the regular price worths it).

Amazon.com's music download is a breeze despite its insistence on
using its own downloading program. The program installs itself and
will download all songs (MP3) and stores them under a special folder
in your Music folder (directory).

Great value!
I've become a big fan of these 99 song bundles. "99 Essential Chants", "99 Perfectly relaxing songs", "99 Mozart", "99 Beethoven" just keep them coming... It's a delight to discover this new music. Am I getting old? ;)
