Classical Music for Children: A Toddler's Introduction to Classical Music

Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Ent. Media Partners, 1997

He started dancing as soon as we put it on!
My 12 month old loves this CD and happily bops away to the music (in the car he sometimes even starts singing!). We like it too and not being very well versed in Classical music, it is a nice mix for us.

The Most Soothing Lullabies In The Universe

Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Denon Records, 2004

sooth for both unborn and newborn babies.
very soothing for the unborn baby (decreases in-utero kicking) and the newborn baby (increases between-feedings time at night). highly recommended for any newly minted parents out there.

Lorraine at Emmanuel

Orch. of Emmanuel Music, Lorraine Hunt Lieberson

Avie, 2008

Their Artistry Is Their Legacy
As a Boston resident from 1985-1994, I attended numerous Emmanuel Music events ranging from the Sellars production of Handel's "Giulio Cesare" (brought to Boston by Sarah Caldwell & the Opera Company of Boston) to several of the weekly Bach Cantatas that they performed ...

A State of Wonder: The Complete Goldberg Variations (1955 & 1981)

Johann Sebastian Bach, Glenn Gould, ...

Sony, 2002

Really, so NO ONE in 1981 realized the analog tapes sounder better?
Most of us may remember the "perfect music forever" marketing that introduced CDs 25 years ago... those of us with working ears pretty quickly dismissed it for the hype it was... I've got both the '55 and '81 versions and now this release. I have NO regrets re the ...

Summon the Heroes

Leo Arnaud, Leonard Bernstein, ...

Sony, 2000

this one will surprise you!
I'll keep it simple: this album is a collection of classical music belonging to a category commonly referred to as the fanfare. Several pieces were written by the conductor, John Williams, who is famous for movie themes like Superman, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star ...

Fiesta

Leonard Bernstein, Inocente Carreno, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2008

The best conductor since Leonard Bernstein
The person who rated this CD as a 1 star, should be ashame of himself. Is the most absurd comment I'd ever heard. And I feel is my duty to report to the public that this opinion is absolutely WRONG. Gustavo Dudamel is simply the hottest thing to hit classical music ...

25 Mozart Favorites

John Sant'Ambrogio, George Silfies, ...

Vox (Classical), 1996

Wonderful collection and price!
I found this to be a nice collection of favorites, especially to keep in the car and listen to. It is a variety of well known compilations. Although not encompassing, it is perfect as a review for driving, relaxing, and enjoyment. Plus, the price is right!

Baby Einstein: Baby Mozart

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Baby Einstein Music Box Orchestra

Buena Vista, 2002

another great classical cd for babies
I am so glad to add Baby Mozart to my Baby Einstein collection. I listen to this CD and my Baby Bach daily. A must have for your little one.

Sarah Brightman Classics

Sarah Brightman, Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni, ...

Angel Records, 2002

Ahh Sarah!
Is there a better singer in the world? I don't think so, but in any case, this new album from the now very svelte and very georgeous Sarah Brightman is superb. The power, the control, the clarity is all there. This experienced vocalist is the definition of a world ...

Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Symphonies

Beethoven's Wig

Rounder / Umgd, 2002

Teaching Kids to Love Classical Music
This is a great product. The kids love it. Some reviews have mentioned that the lead vocalist is not very melodic. However, I see this as a plus. He has a zany way of cracking his voice which is a hilarious complement to the other opera-class voices on the CD. My kids ...

Baby Einstein: Lullaby Classics, Vol. 2

Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, ...

Buena Vista, 2006

Great CD for baby (and adults shhh)
This is great CD. We love Vol. 1 but it was getting a little over played so we bought Vol. 2. It's THE best thing for a car ride. Especially with a fussy baby who hates cars.

Norton Recorded Anthology of Western Music, Fifth Edition, Volume 2: Classic to Twentieth Century (6 CDs)

W. W. Norton, 2005

Excellent
Excellent product..one of the standard anthologies available for studying Music History. One caveat, if you're using Hanning's Concise Grout as a companion text, be sure to match the correct edition of the anthology + recordings to the correct edition of the text.

Beethoven: Symphonies 5 & 7

Ludwig van Beethoven, Carlos Kleiber, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 1996

Great performances
This is the best modern recording of Beethoven symphonies. A collectors album of the highest quality. R. Brown
