4.0 out of 5 stars Constant Companion

An invaluable list of reviews on CD. Clearly laid out, and logically organised. All I need now is the whole thing on CD-ROM....

There is only one review of one chosen recording for each major work, whereas with Penguin all the listed recordings are reviewed to some degree.

Some very fine recordings of major reportoire works performed by Americans are completely left out. I guess I expected better from Gramophone.
