Customer Review: Compré este producto en noviembre 23 de 2007 y me deleité escuchando estos 84 CD's. La calidad de las grabaciones es muy buena. Como tarjeta de presentación basta mencionar los nombres de Arthur Grumiaux y Kurt Masur.

Customer Review: I enjoyed reading the reviews of parents whose kids have recently discovered "Classical Kids." I'm about to order the boxed set for my kids, ages 21, 19 and 16 because the nineteen-year-old, who has a college radio show and loves a wide variety of music, remembers this series (then only on cassette)... more info
Customer Review: I wrote my doctoral dissertation on William Kapell (we share the same school, and my teacher was a student of his), and to still see the outpouring of admiration and love for Kapell's art is still very moving for me.
Customer Review: The performances on this recording are utterly superb. Ohlsson has Chopin in his heart and soul and it shines out everywhere (and it's a special pianist who can claim that!). There may be a few affectations here and there, but they're minor, and it is Chopin, so that might be somewhat unavoidable,... more info
Customer Review: What a charming music this is! We become addicted to it very quickly. Before I discovered that CD, I had no idea Schubert had composed those waltzes. I am so glad I did. This is a real enchantement. Paolo Bordoni gives an outstanding performance here. Pure magic!
Customer Review: Having discovered Chopin's unique musical treasures in my pre-teens through Naxos discs featuring Szekely, Szokolay, Zaritskaya and Biret (readily available in my small home town), I acquired this Ashkenazy set in my teenage years--that is more than ten years ago--and considered it the definitive... more info
Customer Review: I really don't know why, but the Variations and sonatas in this set are often neglected and underrated by pianists. They are wonderful music! I've been playing some of them since I was a piano student.....and I still enjoy as much as in the old days! Of course the well known 32 sonatas are worth... more info
Customer Review: I have been collecting the New Year's concerts for a while, since the 1987 one, this was the only one missing, so I was really happy when it finally was out. Even though it is indeed a great performance in general, the program of music included that year was not the best. I particularly don't find... more info
Customer Review: These CDs are a marvelous and representative collection of Schubert's works; while it does not claim to be a "complete" collection, it's the closest thing I've found on the market and with the exception of some incomplete (early)quartets, it wants for nothing. All the major works are brilliantly... more info
