I heard this CD on a PBS pledge drive (it was a premium) and found myself loving every cut on it! I was in my car and just wanted to keep on driving and listening. This is by far my most-played CD - I've had to make it a weekend only listen to prevent getting burned out on it. HIGHLY recommend it. Even if you are unfamiliar with some of the pieces, you will quickly learn to love them. . . . I must end this review - I'm off to listen to the "flower duet" for the 100th time. . .

3.Cecilia Bartoli - If You Love Me (Se tu m'ami ), 18th-Century Italian Songs by: Alessandro Scarlatti, Antonio Caldara, Antonio Lotti, Antonio Cesti, Giovanni Paisiello, Anonymous, Benedetto Marcello, Giuseppe Giordani, Giulio Caccini, Alessandro Parisotti, Pietro Francesco Cavalli, Antonio Vivaldi, Giacomo Carissimi, Cecilia Bartoli, György Fischer October 13, 1992

Cecilia Bartoli may not be the finest mezzo-soprano extant but few would doubt her exceptional artistry and professionalism. In "Se tu m'ami", she transforms simple, even primitive, melodies into beautiful, dare I say, rapturous arias, in the finest bel canto tradition. I now understand why Paisiello was a favourite of Buonaparte and why I should now acknowledge Vivaldi for his considerable versatility and creativity. The disc now occupies a top shelf in my CD rack. Bravissimo Cecilia.

4.Masters of Classical Music (Box Set) from: Delta October 25, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $36.94
I think that this is really one of the best values you're going to find anywhere in the world of classical music, especially for beginners. You're getting 10 CDs, each filled almost to capacity, with the most famous works from the most famous composers in the history of classical music. The sound quality is excellent on every disc. While I would have made some replacements on the list of who was included, I feel that this collection is a must-buy for anyone interested in exploring classical music in depth. Quality is high, quantity is high, you really can't go wrong.

5.The Greatest Opera Show on Earth from: Polygram Records September 16, 1997

I just bought my second copy of this excellent CD because I literally wore the first one out. No matter how I feel before I play this music, I feel joy whenever I listen to it. Highly recommended to beginners and the more experienced opera listeners as well.

6.Rendezvous of Angels - Concert Collection [20 CD Set] from: Delta December 09, 2003

This box set, along with 2 others, Passion - Most Famous Orchestral Spectaculars & Rhapsody in Blue - Ultimate Piano Collection, from the same company, have been offered at incredibly low prices (around $15) and that is a value that you just cannot pass up. And if the price is back to it's normal range of about $50.00 I would say it is still worth it. But, I think the prices on these sets go up and down a lot, so if you can be patient, keep watching and you should be able to get it for a steal. The pieces on this collection of 20 CDs focus on the strings and the flute. Every CD has been remastered and is great quality. The list of music, as you can see, is huge, as is the number of composers. This being the case, I can highly recommend this as a PERFECT starting point for people that are new to classical; ...

7.The Top 100 Masterpieces of Classical Music (Box Set) from: Delta July 14, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $19.96
I had this collection and lost it in 2000 when moving to a new house. I took me a time to find it but after having it again I can say it is the most valuable selection of classic music, it is truly the 100 top masterpieces and the sound is excellent.

8.Cecilia Bartoli - A Portrait by: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Gioachino Rossini, Giulio Caccini, Guiseppe Giordani, Alessandro Parisotti, Ion Marin, Christopher Hogwood, Riccardo Chailly, György Fischer, Lesley Schatzberger, Cecilia Bartoli, The Academy of Ancient Music September 19, 1995

The greatness in art lies in its flexibility and Bartoli exemplifies this greatness in everything she sings! Bartoli reveals different things at different times. In the world of opera Bartoli stands at the summit of achievement, her work is so perfect, so inspired and heartfelt, so gloriously engaging that it is almost impossible to do it violence. She is, of course, frequently staged and as a result has been at the mercy of numerous operatic fads. Yet Bartoli has faced such slings and arrows bravely. Bartoli's effusive Susanna forced audiences to consider the opera with her at its center. Her chemistry as Susanna is explosive. Bartoli's roles and characterizations must never be minimized. Thanks to her unusual exuberance, Bartoli is reveling in opera's virtues and it is a never-ending project. Mozart and da Ponte were ... Read More

9.The Most Beautiful Melodies of Classical Music, Vol. 1-10 (Box Set) from: Delta July 07, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $10.94
Some of the first music I purchased years ago at Costco, taking a gamble on the quality of pieces chosen, orchestrations, etc.. This remains among some of my favorite collections, as the music is beautiful, rich, and well-done. I ended up buying it about 8 yrs later for my sister b/c she loved it so much.

i can't believe this set is selling for $80 here. i bought this set years ago at circuit city for $35. last time i visited, there was still one on the shelf. shrug i would definitely try and find it cheaper, but even at this price you're not getting ripped off completely. all of the recordings are of good quality and the selections are actually pretty damn good compared to other "best of" sets.
