CD Reviews

High Quantity, Low Quality

W. Styler | Denver/Boulder, CO | 11/24/2006

(1 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this CD hoping to have a large variety of Classical music at my fingertips for easy listening. In a sense, that's what I got.

Unfortunately, this large quantity of music was at a very, very low quality. Whether the trouble was in the Orchestrae themselves, the recording process, or the post-processing, this music is usually recognizable, but not at the quality one might want to listen to. Some of the tracks were better than others, but at their worst, I suspected that several of the tracks were low-budget MIDI sequences, rather than actually being performed by live people.

So, yes, this is a great price for lots of music. However, you get what you pay for, and over 3 discs, your money gets spread awfully thin."
