40 of 43 people found the following review helpful Soothes the Soul, By This review is from: Best Romantic Classics 100 (Audio CD) Two weeks ago, I was sitting in a bookstore when the strains of music came over the sound system and distracted me from my reading several times. But this distraction wasn't Johnny Paycheck's "Take This Job and Shove It" (vile), "The Streak," or "Honey, I Miss You." (Oh, the bile)!This is one of those DVD's you don't have to think about if you have any inclination to the classical. It was a case of how soon can I have it. Not until the 16th it turned out. I eagerly counted the days. Yesterday became one of those special treats where you bring home a great personal gift, pour a glass of wine, sit back, and just enjoy. There are six DVD's here: 1) From Russia with Romance 2) An Austro-German Romance [without boots] 3) A French Romance 4) Romance in a Cold Climate, 5) England & America in Love [at least after 1812], 6) Mediterranean Romance. This is a part of the "Best 100" series, which offers classics and movies, etc. For those who know classical only...

Luckily I wasn't paying full price so they will be added to my background music selections when I can't give full attention. I have no musical training, so I can't speak of the quality of the performances, however generally speaking they are quite good and some are exceptional. Hopefully, they will lead you to try some of the complete works or find a composer or performer or two that you weren't familiar with. 7 of 9 people found the following review helpful NA, This review is from: Best Romantic Classics 100 (Audio CD) When there is an absence of classical music during some parts of the day or night,it is very pleasant to have all of our favorites compositions as backround music. The selections were satisfactory as were the performances. |
