Most Frightening Music in the Universe

Johann Sebastian Bach, Hector Berlioz, ...

Denon Records, 2004

Simply Wonderful!
I would like to begin my review of this wonderful CD by stating that I am not a "kid." (unless you consider a 14-year-old to still be a child) I am, however, too lazy too start a new Amazon.com account before typing about this great CD. Now then... In my eyes, this ...

French Music for Horn and Piano

Eugene Bozza, Henri Busser, ...

Berlin Classics, 1999

Horn Music by French Composers
What makes me value this recording more than most is the playing of Peter Damm who is a very beautiful and exciting performer. I had my sights set on the item by Eugene Bozza but besides this number there many other very exciting horn solos .For the horn player this ...

Children's Favorites

Johann Sebastian Bach, Paul [composer] Dukas, ...

Vox (Classical), 2000

A Wonderful Introduction to the Classics
With total playing time clocking in at 78:04 minutes of music, you'll be paying about 6-cents/minute, which is a better bargain than long distance phone calls, and often more rewarding! This disc is far superior than most other "Classics for Kids"-type recordings ...

Fright Night: Music that Goes Bump in the Night

Johann Sebastian Bach, Hector Berlioz, ...

Sony, 1991

Good for Halloween Gatherings
If you're looking for a fun CD with spooky sounding music that reminds you of old Disney cartoons...I think that this CD was meant to be fun, NOT for the classical conisseur. It would be a nice CD for a Halloween gathering, or something similar, as background music.

Paul Dukas, Camille Saint-Saens, ...

Fantastic
This is the CD to buy if you are looking for the definitive recorded version of both Saint-Saëns' great "Organ" Symphony and Dukas' Sorcerer's Apprentice. James Levine, a master in his own right, brings vision and energy to these famous orchestral staples. Levine and ...

Saint-Saëns: The Carnival of the Animals

Adrian Shepherd, Georges Bizet, ...

Class. for Pleas. Us, 2002

Good Program, Fine Sound, Nice Price
This miscellaneous disc of music allegedly for children makes a nice listen. It starts off with the highly amusing 'Carnival of the Animals' of Saint Saens, moves on to Ravel's 'Mother Goose Suite', Bizet's 'Children's Games', Dukas' 'Sorcerer's Apprentice' and closes ...

Mad about Cartoons

Johannes Brahms, Frederic Chopin, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 1993

Perfect for preschoolers...catchy classical by good orchestras
Opens with the Lone Ranger music, followed by Hunt for the Wabbit. Kiddo has never seen either, but he knows the music means run about the house and twirl with glee.

Philip Jones Brass Ensemble Greatest Hits

Philip Jones Brass Ensemble

Decca, 2001

Welcome Back PJBE
It is ironic that London/Decca waited until many of the important members of the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble were dead before finally releasing this collection of highlights from the ensemble's considerable catalog. Don't misunderstand me! I am thankful for this ...
