Format:Audio CD
There are lots of these "relaxing classics" albums around at the moment and they can all seem identical.
Already owning most of Classic FM's back catalogue in the "relax with..." series as well as several others, it might seem strange to buy yet another compilation album, but there are some absolute "must have" tracks on this collection that are hard to find elsewhere (Delibes' Flower Duet, Gorecki's 3rd Symphony, Pook, Massenet, and so on)
So, if you just want to own one collection of relaxing tracks - keep looking around, get the mix of tracks that suits you best. BUT, if you want to round off a collection with some truly lovely and hard-to-find tracks or just want a slightly more "off the beaten track" selection, then it's time to reach for that credit card!

Of all the multitudes of classical compilation, this one stands out by far. The selection covers every possible taste and mood, and is the only Classical CD that I would want in my car!

Format:Audio CD
2 CDs with good recordings of 36 gentle classical tracks of varying styles which come nicely packaged with background information about all the music. A lot of the music can be found on similar compilations, however the tracks on this album are often slightly shortened versions which do not compromise the music and have the advantage of using less hard disk space if converting to MP3. With Windows Media Player 11 a lot of detail is added under track title which is helpful but frustratingly composer is placed under contributing artist instead of the performer.

if you only buy ONE classical album, buy this.
I have bought this for my son as well as 3 copies for myself as over the years the original tape has worn done and the CD scratched!!
It is the very best ever!

A bit of a mix-up....
While there are some lovely pieces of music on these CDs they don't match the titles. When I bought this 2-set CD I thought that maybe I had received Vol2. Read more

..the original and still the best
much 'relaxing' classical music is depressing, overly centimental or dominated by one style eg. Read more

Definitely very relaxing!
The music on this CD is pleasant to listen to, and the pieces are played so gently that you start to drift of to sleep sometimes! Read more
