Customer Reviews:
Gorgeous music, bad quality cd........2007-04-13
The music is Mozart's and is fantastic. The last piece on the first disc
stutters halfway through, and seizes up my system. I don't have time to return items to Amazon. On the positive side, most of the time Amazon provides quality products and service. I gave 3 stars because I love the music.
Great music, low quality reproduction.......2007-01-30
this is a great collection of his work... the only problem i have found so far is that my copy has irritating "clicks" over the recording.
A nice introduction.......2006-02-22
This is a good well rounded collection to dip you into the classical world of Mozart.
Mozart is the reference point for good classical music........2005-10-20
A good collection of his best work and I find it helps me focus when I'm writing or contempating life.
"We exposed these animals [rats] in utero and then sixty days after birth to different types of auditory stimulation and then we ran them in a spatial maze. And sure enough, the animals that were exposed to the Mozart completed the maze faster and with fewer errors. And now what we're doing is we're removing their brains so we can slice them and see neuro-anatomically precisely what has changed as a function of this exposure. So it may be that this intense exposure to the music is a type of enrichment that has similar effects on the spatial areas of the hippocampus of the brain." --Dr. Frances Rauscher
Dr. Frances Rausher sums up what I feel happening when I expose myself to this incredible composer (Mozart).
I have yet to grow tired of any of the tracks yet, but I will invest in more of his work soon.
Mozart's music.......2005-10-17
This is a review of Mozart's music, not the cd. Mozart is praised to the skies by all and sundry, including most musicians, including my father, who no doubt has his reasons. But my feeling about Mozart has always been that there is nothing in Mozart's music that is other than music. There is no logical impressionism, there are no events that seem to be transpiring as in, for example, Beethoven. Mozart is just music. Mozart is to music as pure mathematics is to science. It hints of nothing else and has no application. I find some of his music irritatingly trivial, for example, Eine Kleine Nachtmuzic. This is mechanical music that one can imagine being piped in by a totalitarian government that insists everyone be cheerful. If Disneyland was an eighteenth century totalitarian state, Mozart would be its Muzak. The populace would be awakened, like Chinese train passengers, at 6AM by the strains of some allegro. They would arise and busy themselves with their ablutions in a state of thoughtless cheer, never for one moment leaving the surface of things. That being said, the second movement of Mozart's clarinette concerto is the music that one will hear on going into heaven.

Customer Reviews:
Great collections, with poor quality sound.......2003-01-09
I expected to listen to great professional classical orchestra ...for this classical music collection, but the quality of the music is not too good.
There are a lot of great music collections, but they will sound better when they record it right.
It is good when you just want to have more classical music, but for a CD, the sound quality is like a [poorley made] CD.
I give 3 stars for this product.
The Greatest Collection Of Romantic Era Music.......2002-09-05
The Top 100 Classical Music series is a must have for novices of classical music, or someone already into the classics but wishes to amassa an "essentials" collection. This particular cd's span the Romantic Era, and although the 19th century saw much more music than what is covered on these recordings, this is nevertheless a brilliant and essential body of works. The Wedding March of Mendelsshon's Midsummer Night's Dream (played in weddings all over the world I'm assuming), Franz Lizst Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 (The Looney Tunes Theme Music by the way) and other jewels of the era, such as the Blue Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss, the operetta overtures of Franz Von Suppe, Verdi's preludes to such operas as Nabucco and La Traviata, Wagner's intense, dramatic music for his Ring of the Nibelung operas, regarded as the epitome and the zenith of Romantic Era opera, and the music of other composers such as Tchaikovsky, Bizet, Sibelius, Rimsky Korsakov and many others. I highly recommend this cd to anyone wanting to sample and taste what Romantic Era music was all about. Five stars all the way.
Somewhat lacking.......2001-03-28
(referring to the entire collection)
The collection is well designed for introducing the listener to a large variety of music, with its broad range of composers and types of music. However, the interpretation of the music is hardly existant, and many of the pieces sound rather dull and uninteresting. Some lively pieces are played too slowly, and nearly all of them without emotion, keeping the set out of reach from being included in a true classical collection. Despite all that, the sheer number and range of pieces (along with the low price) make this a collection well suited for the new classical listener.

Customer Reviews:
Flute artistry of the highest order! A treasure!.......2005-05-10
In terms of artistry, of phrasing and interpretation, Paige Brook has no equal among flutists past or present. The way he phrases and connects notes puts him head and shoulders above the likes of any of the so-called great flutists -- Rampal, Kincaid, Galway, Baker, Bennett -- and the host of younger pretenders to the throne (Pahud, Alexa Still, et al.) who currently dot the landscape.
The musical intelligence at work here is no less than astonishing.
This CD should be required listening for all aspiring flutists -- it is a virtual master class in phrasing and interpretation for the flute.
While other flutists play will-'o-the-wisp pretty for the sake of playing
pretty, or try to snow you with virtuosity for the sake of virtuosity,
Mr. Brook pays attention to the music itself, unafraid to attack and articulate when the music calls for it, to phrase and separate the notes with superb attention to nuance and detail. This is truly playing of the highest order.
If you love the flute, you must have this CD. It is a musical treasure.

Lush music, heartfelt rendition.......2000-10-18
The sumptuous Ravel string quartet, one of the most popular, is played with great feeling and accuracy on this CD by the Borromeo Quartet. I first heard it on one of the public radio "telethons" and was immediately spurred to send in my contribution!! Definitely should be in the collection of anyone who enjoys beautiful, rich tone combined with great technical skill.

Decent Quality, But a Little Rushed.......2002-09-20
I have to agree that this is a good collection of music for the money, especially if you are a novice at the Classics like me. Each disc covers a 40 year period with an hour of music and a little bit of history in the cover slip. However, there were some oddities that made me question the quality of this product. First, a few of the songs seemed like the conductor was hurrying them along so the songs on a disc would add up to exactly one hour -- where's the love? I know I'm a novice, but there are just some songs that are so famous that you can pretty easily tell when they are being butchered or compressed. Second, the quality of the product was suspect. Some of the discs looked like they were manufactured in 1990 and some in 1994. The older ones just had the titles on the discs and the newer ones had a screen-printed color change with no information. They couldn't even use the same type of Jewel Case throughout the collection. In total, it's good for beginners and the money, but not much else.
Decent, but not exciting.......2002-09-01
Not bad, but not a perfect as well. The music selection is very questionable for my taste. The performers are not always very suitable for specific masterpieces. It is inherently, just because such mix of names cannot be bad ;). If I will compose such set a lot of forgotten things should take their place.

Sounds good to me........2002-07-25
Bought this CD to calm and relax myself after a hard days work. CD seems like a great collection to me. It's got a lot of songs that I recognize and some that I don't. It does sooth me a bit after the the many stresses of everyday life.
I'm not really a classical music nut like "Frasier Crane" so I'm not sure how much merit I can bring to the table with this review. But I think it's great..!!!
Wonderful Selection.......2001-05-13
Some of the world's truly finest musicians perform some of the all time greatest and most loved musical masterpieces. The CD makes for easy and peaceful listening of an evening.

Overall good but one problem.......2006-05-24
You can tell the music is well performed and there is the sense of passion from the performers. No complaints in that aspect. The problem is these do not sound like CDs. They sound like tape re-recorded to CD. Those that remember the underlying static that was on almost all cassette tapes. That is on these CDs. And as you turn the music up to fully enjoy it the distrubance comes through even more. I have tried these on 3 different systems, and all have the same results.
Going to try to clean it up by converting to MP3 and back again. I know you lose some quality but it may make the overall enjoyment better.
Please don't get me wrong, the performance on these CD's is exceptional. And it is truley a shame that there is this issue. If you have a way to cancel noise then by all means this should be a good buy. If you play it softly then you will not notice noise on the recording. At the price I am not upset at this but I am a bit disappointed at it.
100 MASTER pieces..........2006-01-31
I am so impressed and moved by the music, the selection, the quality of the recordings. An incredible collection at an unbelievable price. I can not imagine a better overall set of this magnitude and quality. If you need Mozart, want to know Mozart, have never listened to Mozart, you need this set. Happy 250th!
