Wonderful.......2007-06-26

I bought this CD to listen to at work (I am 6 months pregnant). The quality is awesome and the choice of songs is perfect I can listen to it over and over.

Great for putting kids to sleep!.......2007-06-08

I absolutely love this CD! In fact this is our second one because we wore out the first since we played it so much. It is very soothing, and in fact we used it to help both our kids (now 4 and 18 mo) go to sleep since they were babies. I highly recommend it!

Very Relaxing.......2007-04-10

It is very soothing and really helps you relax. I enjoy listening to it in the car during my high stress commute.

A Must Have for all Parents of Little Children !!!.......2006-11-25

I bought this when my first baby was...well, a baby. That was 8 years ago. Now I am on my 4th copy of this cd (Mozart For Mothers to Be) and my 3rd child. Nothing works better. I'm on here to buy my 4th copy becasue I've worn them out over the years and have to keep replaceing them. My 8 and 3 year old still use it, and now the new baby, also. Make it part of your nightly bed time routine and you'll have good little sleepers in no time. I swear by it. It is very soothing, calming and not distracting so it won't drive you bonkers if you can hear it a little from the next room.

A truely great gift for new parents, or if you have a sleepless little one at home. Turn on the cd, turn down the lights and let it sooth them to sleep.

Inspire the baby-within.......2005-12-13

Beyond sheer musical appreciation and enjoyment, Mozart's music in general is ideal for gently stimulating the "creative centers" as well as instilling a sense well-being. While there is much academic disagreement about the extent or reality of the so-called "Mozart Effect," it doesn't take a genius to observe how Mozart's music puts most people (and probably babies-to-be) in a happy mood ready to take on the day's challenges. There is a simplicity - yet elegance and musical brilliance - in his music that is also well-suited for the youngest of children.

The selections on this CD are all excellent and represent a nice range of Mozart's compostions, emphasising those that are ideal for creating a pleasant backdrop for leisure, dining and social occasions ("divertimentos"). The recordings are from the creme of musicians famous for their Mozart. Few works are as elegant and soaring as the Serenade #10 for winds - an astonishingly beautiful tune made famous from the early scenes of the movie, "Amadeus." Mozart supreme gifts of music are even seen in such humble "background music" as these pieces. And such continuity of warm, leisurely tones as these over 70 minutes is ideal for inspiring the baby to-be if that is why you are considering this CD. Better to expose a baby to the gentile, lyrical music of Mozart than to the dissonant, loud and disturbing tones of some classical music written well after Mozart.

As the reviewer below rightfully notes, compilation CD's of various unrelated works like this one is not quite how classical music is best meant to be heard. But in a way it is better for many to start with such collections like this - especially for those who just want the more quiet selections that are unintrusive. In that respect, this collection can be satisfying for most anyone (not just moms or babies). I have a huge classical music collection, but still really enjoy listening to one full CD of similar-temperament music like this one that flows easily and smoothly that doesn't demand my attention but only seeks to delight. And, in the end, that was the simple and primary goal of many of Mozart's compositions - to be purely enjoyed and delighted.

What's Not to Love?.......2004-04-19

I have owned this set for several years and return to it endlessly. The angel Mozart has been praised over the centuries-and deservedly so-for many works,but no one-no one- wrote for wind band quite like him,as this lovely set attests. There is the familiar "Gran Partita" and "Nacht Musique" here, as well as wonderful gems for all combinations imaginable of wind instruments. Especially superb are the divertimenti for oboe, cor anglais, clarinet, horn and bassoon. Mozart's music always "sings," but particularly so in these joyous, soulful entertainments. The artistic lineup is unbeatable too: The Netherlands Wind Ensemble, the Holliger Wind Ensemble, and The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. This is sweet, wonderful stuff.

Heart's content!.......2002-09-20

I place the Gran Partita, K. 361, as Top Ten Mozart, and it's played with such joy here, I was almost taken aback. I have three other versions, and this one just may be my favorite. One version is all shadows, which is cool, but oh! the joy in the present version. K. 375 and K. 388 are played perfectly too. The good thing about this set is they have a lot of hard-to-find pieces for wind. To me, Mozart was unparalled at wind writing. The textures! The tones! It's too good to be true. Hooray!

A wonderful collection.......2000-10-15

This volume of the Complete Mozart Edition put togheter by Phillips is an extraordinaire set of wind serenades and divertimenti.

The complete edition is a wonderful set of the first level and of superior performance.

I strongly recommend to try to complete the full set.

Delightful... except for the last track........2007-02-23

I was explaining to a friend once, "Why do we teach our children to love insipid music? They only love Barney because we exposed them to it." In response, my friend bought this for me as a shower gift, and I love it. Mozart is excellent for little developing brains, and they've selected tracks that are kid-pleasing (no huge dynamics swings or dissonance, etc). My child (now two) likes it a lot. But, the last 2 tracks are excerpts from their other Mozart product, which is a CD containing a fantasy about landing inside the story of the Magic Flute. The loud thunderstorm, screams about a dragon, etc totally destroy any lullaby use for the CD and any mood the music has created unless you burn a new copy without those tracks (which is what I did). But, I like the rest of the CD so much that I bought the Bach counterpart from the same series, and that one is my kid's favorite music.

Magical Music.......2004-08-13

I was wanting some Classical Music to listen to when I read or surf the web. To be honest I dont know much about it, but Ive always liked it. When my daughter was born a few years ago they gave her a Mozart CD for babies, and I enjoyed listening to it.

So I recently purchased "Everybody's Mozart" for myself. Its two CD's, combining for about two and a half hours of music. The back cover of the CD case says "Everybody loves Mozart! His greatest hits are at your fingertips on two long playing compact discs. Heard in film, televison, advertising and of course, concert halls- Mozart is as popular today as ever. From the first sublime moments to the final joyful chord- everyone will instantly recognize these treasured works."

Im real happy with the purchase. This music relaxes me and puts me in a good mood. I do recognize alot of the music as things Ive heard in movies. Since this is my first Classical Music CD Im not real informed on how it stacks up to other collections. But I will say that the sound quality is great. Beautiful music! Most of it is without singing, but a few of the tracks have some opera. I also like to play these CD's while I sleep so Im not bothered by traffic noises(I work nightshift). I sleep real peaceful with them as background music. Most of the music is performed by the Academy of St Martin-in the fields. If your wanting to add some Mozart to your music collection give these two CD's a shot.

Beautiful melodies from a musical genius.......2000-04-16

Mozart is my favorite classical music composer and I have collected a number of recordings of his works. This album, a compilation of Adagio recordings, is a true masterpiece that will please any music lover.

The twelve pieces on this CD were well-chosen and well-organized. The opening Piano Concerto No. 21 is a beautiful piece played by the talented Jeno Jando, as is the Adagio from Piano Concerto No. 23. These two piano works are superb and clearly demonstrate how Mozart mastered the art of the piano concerto, especially when it comes to the Adagio.

The Adagios from Divertimentos Nos. 2 and 15 are also present and in my opinion are the best pieces on the entire album. The soft, flowing melodies and diversity in Divertimento No. 15 is captivating, and it easily qualifies as one of my personal favorites.

Serenades Nos. 10 ("Gran Partita") and 13 ("Eine Kleine Nachtmusik") are also featured on this album. The German Wind Soloists perform a beautiful rendition of the Adagio from Serenade No. 10. The Romance piece from Eine Kleine Nachtmusik is likewise wonderfully performed.

This album also features the Andante from String Quartet No. 21 and a couple of Adagios from works featuring the violin. The violinist Takako Nishizaki performs well on both violin pieces, accompanied by the Capella Istropolitana, which is featured on a number of the tracks on this album.

The delightful Andantino from the Flute and Harp Concerto in C major is also included along with the Adagio from Flute Quartet No. 1. Lastly, to end the album is the unmatched Adagio from the Clarinet Concerto in A major. I have a few other recordings of this Clarinet Concerto and love to listen to the flowing sounds of the instruments as they release the magic of the music.

The genius of Mozart is clearly present on every piece on this album. I strongly recommend this album as an addition to any classical music collection, whether you like Mozart or not, as you will not fail to be impressed. When you listen to this album, you cannot help but be carried away by the beautiful melodies into a state of bliss.....
