| 2. |  | Chasing Pavements by Adele Price: $9.98 Customer Review: For now, we'll have to make do with just one song from Adele, already a critics' favorite in the UK. Only 19, Adele's captivating voice suggests a much older chanteuse, the spirit of a long-ago torch/jazz singer transported to the modern age. Adele has been dubbed the "new Amy Winehouse," and... |

| 4. |  | Glass: Violin concerto from Naxos American Price: $7.99 Customer Review:  if you're looking for music that sounds like a soundtrack for a movie you'll forget in 5 minutes, buy this disc. this music is really bad. at one point a violin line sounds like a vivaldi rip off, and you know what stravinsky said about vivaldi: "vivaldi was a very boring man who wrote the same... |

Its calming and interesting. Its great in the car. The story goes along with the movements of the piece and really brings classical music and a great story to children. I now get this for all my friends... |

| 7. |  | Broadway - The American Musical (PBS Series) from Sony Price: $59.98 Customer Review:  Of course there should have been much more. I remember there been a Metropolian Opera series called CAST ALBUMS- 100 YEARS that was put out for a limited time only and had like five volumes. As Peter Filichia noted they left out SHE LOVES ME, BRIGADOON and SWEENEY TODD. Also nothing from... |

| 9. |  | Mahler: The Complete Symphonies by Dame Janet Baker Price: $62.99 Customer Review: This is an excellent set of Mahler's symphonies, the Kindertotenlieder, three Ruckertlieder, and the adagio of the tenth. But these are not the only Mahler symphonies conducted by Bernstein, and Bernstein is not the best. but if you want to get all of them at once, this is the way to do it. I think... |

| 10. |  | A to Z of Classical Music from Naxos Price: $11.99 Customer Review: It's only natural we sometimes hit the high seas....make that Cs. This is one box set about which we sing praises. This set features more than two hours of the finest music from across the centuries by such composers as Schubert, Chopin, Mozart, Handel, Stravinsky and Glass. The set also comes with... |

| 12. |  | Beethoven: The Nine Symphonies from Sony Price: $99.98 Customer Review: I own the Klemperer complete set of Beethoven symphonies plus a number of wonderful individual versions (Carlos Kleiber's 5th, Bruno Walter's 6th, Wilhelm Furtwangler's 9th), and yet this might be the finest sounding Beethoven symphonies. The quality of the remastering is phenomenal, the sound of... |

| 14. |  | Handel: Messiah from Sony Price: $19.99 Customer Review: If you are a Baroque purist, you will probably gag, but this edition of Handel's most famous work points out the strengths and weaknesses of Bernstein the arranger. Bernstein butchered Handel, rearranging vocal parts and transposing with abandon. He uses the traditional voice types, including a... |

| 15. |  | A Copland Celebration Vol. 3 from Sony Price: $13.98 Customer Review: I must confess I am unfamiliar with Copland's "The Tender Land" except for this reissue, which I find to be absolutely magnificent. I realize this is a truncated performance, eliminating what I assume to be a fair amount of spoken dialogue. But I don't care. What is presented here is simply one of... |

The symphonies are good, but I was not sure what was on every disc since there is no listing on Amazon. I went to the Naxos website to see the track listings for the 4 cd's, and the 4th one had a listing of... |

| 19. |  | Schoenberg: Piano Works from Sony Price: $31.98 Customer Review: As ever Gould doesn't follow the score... the clear and accurate indications of tempi, of agoge and dynamics, the sudden changes from pianissimo to fortissimo and vice-versa (there are here few fortissimos instead, and more in the bass range), the sudden rhythmic changes. The pace in general is too... |

She meets new friends at the orphanage and befriends a gondalier, has a mysterious adventure involving a note and an enchanted violin,... |

This French released set (made in Austria in the year 2000) is virtually the same as both... |

| 25. |  | Bach: St. Matthew Passion by David Lloyd Price: $21.99 Customer Review: After all these years of hearing this great work in an atmosphere of absolute correctness, it completely blows me away to hear Bernstein unafraid to be swept up in the immense passion of Christ's trial, crucifixion and death. Bernstein wasn't obsessed with 'what did Bach intend or want here' but... |

| 26. |  | Golden Greats: Greatest Broadway Hits from Golden Greats Price: $22.99 Customer Review: This bargain collection of showtunes is highlighted by the composition of Kurt Weill and the uniquely rolling tongue of Colette Lyons. I have a complaint about this compilation. It includes "Ol' Man River", but it excludes Al Jolson's rendition of "Ol' Man River." Otherwise, this collection gives... |

| 27. |  | Bernstein Century - Mahler: Symphonies no 2 & 8 (Part 1), etc... from Sony Price: $23.98 Customer Review: Without a doubt, this is the Mahler/Bernstein Resurrection Symphony to get. Not that his later DG recording with the same orchestra is bad, on the contrary, it's outstanding. However, I have become convinced that the present recording may be one of the greatest ever made - of any piece of music. |

| 28. |  | Richard Strauss: Ariadne auf Naxos from Emi Classics Price: $23.98 Customer Review: EMI's 1954 recording of Ariadne auf Naxos under Karajan was a miracle of style, and the female leads -- Schwarzkopf, Seefried, and Streich -- gave unsurpassed performances. But time passes, and the boxy mono sound in that set was dated almost before it was released. For a stereo Ariadne fifteen... |

I love listening to it as I travel and love sharing it with others. Maybe I shared it too much as my recording is missing and I am buying another one just like it. |

| 33. |  | The Story of American Classical Music from Naxos Price: $17.99 Customer Review: Many reasonably sophisticated American and European musiclovers still think there are really no American classical music composers of note other than perhaps Gershwin and Copland. It is to the credit of the Naxos label, via their 'American Classics' series, that the lie is put to that notion. Each... |

| 34. |  | Inside U.S.A./The Band Wagon from Sepia Recordings Price: $15.98 Customer Review: "Inside U.S.A." was a huge hit revue with the unique Bea Lillie, Jack Haley of "The Wizard of Oz" and such future names as Carl Reiner (not on the recordings). "Atlanta" was apparently cut as it doesn't appear in any programs of the show, and it is revue material with topical references so younger... |

| 37. |  | Plays George Gershwin from Pearl Price: $34.98 Customer Review: George Gershwin's best-selling recording was a 1924 acoustical, black seal Victor disc that reproduced the recent world premiere of Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue." The Paul Whiteman Orchestra, which actually a big band with a few strings added on occasion, joined the composer in an edited performance... |

| 38. |  | Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy: Symphonies Nos. 1-5 from RCA Customer Review: Mendelssohn's 5 symphonies are not played as often as the Beethoven or Brahms, which is a real shame. All of them are wonderful pieces, even the first two, which are hardly ever played. As to the complete set here, I would avoid it. The first two symphonies do receive fine performances, especially... |

| 39. |  | Essential Beethoven - Essential Classics from Sony Price: $6.98 Customer Review: "Essential Beethoven", part of Sony Music's Essential Classics series, definitely lives up to its title. While it would take essentially a boxed set of five CDs to cover Ludwig Van Beethoven's absolute essential material, this single disc covers the basics of his greatest and best known work ranging... |

| 40. |  | Pärt: Tabula Rasa; Fratres; Symphony No. 3 from Deutsche Grammophon Price: $16.98 Customer Review: I agree that there is a significant difference between Kremer and Shaham in interpreting the Tabula Rasa- and I'm not going to argue that one is better or worse, although I will definitely stipulate that the dedicatee of the work (Kremer) probably has a better handle on Part's original intentions... |
