For those who want the most remembered passages of classical music's best-loved works, here's a package for you. On this bargain priced double-CD, you'll find music from 40 different classical composers; for the most part, the recordings excerpted here are some of the very best. Of course, you only get one Bach sampling (Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, played by the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra) and one Mozart (A Little Night Music conducted by Herbert von Karajan), but this is still a nice collection--perhaps the starting point for a budding collection of classical music. This set's downfall? Unfortunately, though the liner notes discuss the evolution of classical music chronologically, the tracks are programmed in alphabetical order by composer's last name. This makes for some startling transitions! Emil Gilels's reflective performance of the Adagio from Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata is followed by the crashing cymbals and bombast of Carmen's "March of the Toreadors," a recipe for a heart attack if there ever was one. Still, there's something here for everyone and the liner notes even explain what movies this music can be found in. A nice touch. --Jason Verlinde
Customer Reviews:
Waste of money.......2006-01-12
Watch out for the volume leveling mentioned in another review. Surely the compliers could have come up with a better sort order than by composer. The change in tempo/volume between pieces makes it impossible to enjoy. My two CD's ended up in the trash.

Great Music Compilation.......2005-08-15
This is a great CD full of many songs that you will recognize and enjoy. If you are someone who likes classical music but doesn't necessarily know which songs or which composers you like, then this CD is for you. You will likely recognize many of the songs as the classical songs you would have picked out to be your favorites.
If you like classical music don't buy this CD........2005-03-11
Most of the tracks were chopped down to 3-4 minutes so some of the best parts of the compositions are missing. I don't know what I was thinking trying to buy 40 classical songs on two CD's. If you really want to enjoy the music you would do better to purchase a CD with fewer, but better quality tracks.
A must for anyone wanting the staples of classical music.......2005-02-23
In my years of experience teaching Fine Arts to high school students, I know that the majority, if not all, of the music included on this album is commonly used in collge music appreciation courses. This is an excellent sample of truly all the "greatest hits" of classical music. My students enjoy listening to the music and have later told me when take their required music apreciation courses in college that they "already know it all" because of this CD! The recordings are clear, the selections are passionate, and the listener will gain a familiarity with all of the most commonly heard classical music used in tv commercials, movies, etc.
I recommend this album, along with the boxed set, "Age of the Classics" for anyone who is interested in becoming familiar with the most famous staples of classical music.
A great compilation.......2005-02-09
This cd somes up some of the greatest pieces of instrumental (and is some cases choral) music ever written. It is a great starter for a beginning classical music lover or a quick and easy all-in-one for those of us who study classical music for a living. I highly recommend this cd to anyone who wants to love or already does love classical music.

Get a "Handel" on Christmas.......2000-11-17
If you like Handel's Messiah but get bored with the solo's then this is the CD for you. Handel's Messiah has been around for many years, with different versions. I like this CD because the collection of the most famous and beloved chorus' are found here without having to hear all the solo's which are usually included on the other CD's that I have found. The chorus' are the best known and those that I look forward to hearing at Christmas. The quality of the rrecording is excellent and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir does a great job at what they do best.

As good as it gets -- in THIS life!.......2006-04-13
Four years ago today (April 12) my Mom died. Dad says she passed out into the next life, listening through headphones on her 'Walkman,' to a tape of her children's choir of forty years earlier, performing (amazingly for mostly 12-year-olds) in four-part harmony, this most famous 'chorus' by Handel.
I'll always be partial to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's delivery of the "Hallelujah Chorus" -- backed by my favorite orchestra, the Philadelphia Symphony, conducted by Eugene Ormandy. But this version has displaced all others in my heart . . . apart from the choir of young voices that will forever sing, in my mind's ear, the most perfect "Hallelujah."
----
This rendition of Handel's masterwork -- by Robert Shaw's 200 assembled voices, plus the Cleveland Orchestra -- is a brilliantly-engineered recording; with the sort of spatial definition that places the listener right in the midst of the most glorious music this side of heaven.
Equally breathtaking highlights on this CD include "The Creation: The Heavens are Telling," by Haydn, and Mozart's "Lacrimosa." An extravagance of riches!
Oh yes, and the tempo of Handel's masterwork, as conducted by Shaw, seems perfect to my ears . . . which is to say EXACTLY the pace at which our kids' choir of forty years ago was conducted by "Mom" -- Grace Blackburn of Ottawa Canada.
----
On this anniversary of her passing (into a world where we may hope even more celestial music reigns) a friend who sang alongside me in that children's choir -- Brenda Zanin of Ottawa recalls,
"When you are 12 years old, your perspective of grown-ups tends to be pretty narrow.
"To me, Grace Blackburn was the soft-spoken choir director at St. Thomas the Apostle Church, who persisted week-after-week, to teach us Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. We had no written music in our hands. She taught us the high notes and ethereal phrases by rote, in small groups . . . a few bars at a time . . . until we knew it in our sleep.
"We were just kids, so, deprived of proper tenors, she transposed those lines for our higher voices. And it worked. To this day I can sing the entire chorus verbatim - and did so this past Easter in my church choir.
"What a delightful surprise to read (in the Ottawa Citizen newspaper) that all these years later, the recording we were so proud of way back in the early 1960s played softly in Mrs. Blackburn's ears as she passed on.
"And what an eye-opener to discover that this kindly lady had made such significant contributions to the wider community (including a United Nations environmental award).
"I am sure she is enjoying the heavenly music of an infinitely greater chorus, while here below we continue to enjoy the many fruits of the labors from which she now rests."
"symphonic in scale & eternal in their appeal".......2000-12-04
RCA Victor presents Robert Shaw the preeminent choral conductor of our time and The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus in sacred choral works that are symphonic in scale, and eternal in their appeal. Newly remastered with state-of-the-art 24/96 technology, this superb album presents the magic of these performances in the widest range of musical reproduction ever.
If you love the sound of a full chorus, this CD is for you - made up of students, secretaries, teachers, doctors, engineers, mechanic - all races and national origins. They sing for the "love" of it, and when they perform the "MESSIAH:HALLELUJAH CHORUS" by Handel, at that moment when all 200 voices abound you feel the heaven-sent with all it's glory...as in "THE CREATION: THE HEAVENS ARE TELLING" by Haydn, "pure" power and heart-felt emotion as only a large choral gathering can interpret.
It's difficult to imagine - these masterpieces from world renown composers - Brahms, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schubert and Bach were recorded in 1961, the clarity is astounding...a must have for your ever-growing collection of music that will live on forever and forever - HALLELUJAH!
Total Time: 48:40 on 8 Tracks...RCA Victor 63709...(2000)

Customer Reviews:
Three thumbs up!!!.......2007-01-20
Awesome!!!! I love the Messiah and these people sing it fast!
These choruses have never been sung better.......2006-12-17
This excerpt disc comes from Shaw's mid-Sixties Messiash, one of the first (along with Mackerras on EMI and Colin Davis on Philips) to offer the small-scale chorus and orchestra that have now become standard. There's only a primitive attempt to osund 'authentic,' but that hardly matters in the choruses.
What does matter is Shaw's superb selection of professional New York singers. Making up the Robert Shaw Chorale for more than twenty years, they remain the gold standard for choral singing on records. The unity and balance to be heard here are miraculous, and even though Shaw wasn't the greatest Baroque conductor, this aspect of his Messiah is glorious. Too bad that RCA doesn't get some of the edge off the recorded sound.
