"Surpisingly playful for a religious piece but after all this is Rossini we are talking about. This does not apply to the stabat mater; that is more serious."
"This is a CD from back when I used to listen to classical music only. I still find these pieces very heart-warming and inspiring. I think Mendelssohn was only a teenager when he wrote them."
"Who would have thought that Sigur Ros would make it into a list like this. Yet, their latest album and especially the first three songs have a refreshing jauntiness and quirkiness. Try them out!"
"This cd is one of my old favourites that I never get tired of. Not particularly jaunty tunes but played with such gusto and refinement it will have you whistling all through the cd. A joy!"
"Bigger and better than their first album, Vampire Weekend have done it again. An ideal cd to start your day with especially a rainy one. It is filled with sunshine!"
