Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - An incomplete CD
Think you're buying a CD with 5 Mozart symphonies on it?
Think again. I just received it and was stunned to see that only 1 movement of symphonies nos. 26 and 32 are included. What happened to the other 4 movements? It's a mystery.
Now, while I am disgruntled, I have to point out that this is not Amazon's fault, as it clearly shows on the disk contents that those two symphonies are incomplete. But who would think to check? Not me.
But now you know.

That said, these ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Special performances
I never tire of listening to these beautifully balanced and exciting performances. They ooze musicality and are so satisfying. 29 in A is simply fabulous - amongst the best I've ever heard.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essential Mozart - crisp, lively and perfect
I was lucky to find this CD - the local independent book and music store helped me look up the best recording using The Penguin Companion to Classical Music. This CD was rated highly and so I bought it. Its one of the best classical music CDs that I own. The violins are crisp and clean, the pace is lively and never drags, and there are no errant noises (like coughing) in the background. The music puts a zip in your step and a smile on your face. Its the kind of CD that will make people ask who is ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - With Mozart, Marriner Is First--There Is No Second or Third
Other than works by Vivaldi (of course), the first movement of Mozart's Symphony No. 25 in G Minor, titled Allegro con brio, is the most joyful piece of orchestral music I've ever heard. Thanks largely to the film AMADEUS, it is familiar to many who otherwise might not listen to or buy classical music. I have compared Neville Marriner's tempo and phrasing with those of at least a dozen other conductors, and the first nine notes tell it all: only Marriner's conducting of it gets a perfect "brio rating" ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essential Mozart
This is one of my favorite recordings of some of my favorite Mozart symphonies. These symphonies are from the middle period of his life, and they show Mozart's attainment of a new level of skill and sophistication in his orchestral works. They also show the classical symphony taking it's final form(the final form of the classical symphony was actually Haydn's creation, but Mozart was a follower of Haydn's works) of four movements with the first and the fourth being fast, the second being slow and the third being ...
