5.0 out of 5 stars DON'T HESITATE TO BUY THIS CD, December 27, 2001
What can I say other than this is a great CD. Beethoven was a master and his music will live forever. Altough I don't like every single symphony he composed, I love all the pieces on this album. These selections have "fire and passion," and I listen to them over and over again. Enjoy!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well Done!, December 27, 2008
By Applegirl (Vero Beach, FL) - See all my reviews
I wanted a sampling of Beethoven's works after viewing "Copying Beethoven" and this CD lived up to my expectations. This CD is a good overview of some of his great works. Glad I bought it.
