I am a former first grade teacher and educational software designer/developer so I have some experience with educational media. We have all three in the set but this is the only one we have watched so far. I only have one complaint about this and that is the use of the baby voice to introduce each section. It sounds cute but some words are either mispronounced or difficult to understand. I know it's all part of the theme but a "cleaner" voice would make it perfect. With that said, I love this as much as my 26 month old twin boys do. It is visually compelling and the musical selections are very nice. I will recommend this to friends.

If your baby is going to own one DVD collection, this should be it. We have all of the competitors, but once we bought this colection, it is all we watch. It s beautiful, clever, and educational (both for parents and baby). The music is fabulous as well, no omre of that pretend-classical music (Baby Einstein and friends...), this is the real thing! I will buy it for every baby shower and birthday party from now on!

We caught Classical Baby: The Art Show on HBO and my son who was 7 months old at the time was mesmorised by it. The music is beautiful and the visuals are simple and eye catching. I studied art history and am impressed by the unique way of introducing fine art to an infant. My son still loves it now at 15 months and has learned to clap with the characters and he dances when the jazz song comes on. Even my husband enjoys watching it...over and over and over. We have The music show and the dance show too, but the Art Show is our favorite.

This is such a refreshing change from all the Baby Einstein videos. They are good but too many of a good idea drained dry, if you know what I mean. CLASSICAL BABY: THE ART SHOW is for all ages - it relaxed me as well as my 5 1/2 month old.

Music by Strauss, DeBussy, Duke Ellington (to name a few) play as the screen shows slow moving closeups of paintings. All are conducted by a precious little baby conductor. VERY engaging to watch.

The whole HBO series Classical Baby is so good. It is mesmerizing to the young set (and I must admit the grandparents as well) weaving together famous works of art and music. And for those who think these lessons are not imprinted upon the minds of these youngsters, consider that my grandson, now 8, who watched this as a baby recognized works of art at the Art Museum specifically from this DVD as well as some of the music. A wonderful introduction to the arts! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

My 3 year old loves this dvd! A nice introduction to art and classical music at the same time. It's a "calm" dvd you won't mind having your child watch.

The classicial baby series is truly terrific. I showed it for my daughter since she was 16 months and she LOVES it. Everytime when we entered the living room, she will scream out "Baby Baby".

Excellent video for small children. I teach art and it has all of the elements in a way that is fast and interesting for little people.

I love this video. I've now shown it the kindergarten , 1st, and 2nd grade stutents. I used it as an aid to introduce the students to Expressionism.

We are big fans of Classical Baby the Music Show and when we found this movie we had to buy. We love this one too. We love the music and the different art that it shows us. I love how there are little people or animals that do things around the art or how it starts from the first of how the picture was drawn. My two year old loves clapping and acting like the animals after each little show. I love to watch it and so does my two year old. Very fun colorful relaxing show the whole family LOVES it. A must buy
