Marvelous set of classical instrumental pieces recorded by renown artists by famous composers.

Surely, this inexpensive venture into classical music will have fruitful benefits for all who listen, especially to followup ventures into instruments and composers who interest such.

Especially enjoy the harpsichord selections. July 2, 2003

I have played much of this music in my younger years with the local high school symphony. This is an excellent collection for classical music lovers. Most of the pieces selected are done very well and I thought the sound quality was pretty good. It was great to get a CD box set with so much music for this low price. I would recommend this CD collection to anyone who just wants to listen to some really good classical music. What a nice way to relax and stir up the memories of years past. With the various selections and price your can't go wrong with this one. May 8, 2002

THIS A VERY GOOD ALBUM. YOU CAN FIND THE MOST IMPORTANT INTRUMENTS IN CLASSICAL MUSIC IN A SOLO VERSION. WHAT A GREAT IDEA OF THE PRODUCER TO INCLUDE A WHOLE EDITION BY CHOOSING THE MOST IMPORTANT CLASSICAL PIECES WITH THE APPROPIATE INSTRUMENTATION. I'M SO PROUD OF SCHUBERT FAMOUS AVE MARIA WITH ONLY THE SOUND OF A CELLO. VERY WONDERFUL PIECE TO RELAX AND HAVE IT READY TO SING ITS LYRICS IF YOU PREFER TO DO SO.
