Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Favorite classical
He is one of my favorite classical composers. This cd contains some of his best and well-known works. While not every selction is a favorite, there are more than enough to make getting the cd worthwhile



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good acquisition
Muy buena adquisición. Excelente opción para escuchar mientras estoy en la oficina, en el auto, leyendo o simplemente disfrutando de buena música clásica.
