Product Description

Review
"More valuable than ever to any serious collector of classical music."

Product Description
The latest "Penguin Guide Yearbook" is the essential companion volume to the acclaimed "Penguin Guide to Compact Discs". Not only does it review the many hundreds of CDs that have appeared once the publication of the main guide in 2005, but it also takes a close look at some of the more unusual areas of the classical music repertoire, and includes extensive sections on concerts and recitals.

4.0 out of 5 stars Penguin Guide to CD's YEARBOOK!, 23 Jan 2007
By Tim O'Leary (Dorset. UK) - See all my reviews
This is a great guide for anyone with an interest in Classical Music, wanting to source the best recordings. However, there is a catch - this is a YEARBOOK and you also need the main guide (which I didn't realise!), so it's not a complete reference of the current works available. This is a book that updates the main guide, with new releases since it's publication in 2005.

The guide itself is easy to read, with descriptions of CD's currently available, listing the best buys and best recordings. BUT, if you don't have the main guide it will be incomplete as a reference source - you need both and I cannot find it on Amazon. The Penguin Books website sell it at £25.00, plus £3.00 delivery charge.

So, if you are updating your main guide and want to stay current, this is an essential buy. If you don't have the main guide, I would advise against buying this edition, as you won't have a comprehensive guidebook - there is a lot missing! My advice is go for the Gramophone Edition "The Classical Good CD, DVD & Download Guide 2007" This is an excellent and FULL guide, covering all the available recordings you are likely to need. If you read Gramophone magazine you will find it easier to read than the Penguin guide as well.
