 | An Organ Blaster Sampler [Read More ...]
Review: "Blasted" away:I am by no standards an expert on music, let alone organ music. I just purchased this CD because I love the sound of the organ, and wanted an album from a mix of artists before I started branching out to single composers. I would also consider myself an audiophil... |

 | Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring / Mormon Tabernacle Choir [Read More ...]
Review: Bach and Handel Treats:The unfortunate thingÑif anything can be said to the contrary about this collectionÑis that is an older recording. As far as authenticity, what was available in the days of Bach and Handel to perform their music, and what they may have had in mind as t... |
 | The Only Classical CD You'll Ever Need! [Read More ...]
OMG! Think of the Money I Could Have Saved!:There's one horrible omission from this anthology of "Zerspoilerte Musik" however. How could they claim that this is "the only classical CD you'll ever need" without a single track of Glenn Gould playing Bach! |

Review: For Water Aerobics, a Top-Ten CD:I provide music for water aerobics classes. The class members are typically retirees, and like Classical music, yet until this CD the only Classical music with a beat distinctive and steady enough for water aerobics that I'd found was on the "Hoo... |

 | Copland: Greatest Hits [Read More ...]
Review: 56 minutes bland sleepy music:Fanfare for the Common Man is 3:27 min (at the very beginning), Rodeo 3:14 (min at the very end). They are great - some of the most beautiful music I have ever listened to. In between is 56 minutes of the dullest music ever. I waited 3 to 5 minute... |
