I am honored to be the first one to review this album. I'm suprised no one has done it yet! This CD is AWESOME. I don't listen to Classical much but when I do this is one of the albums I choose over all the rest. If you are in doubt I'm here to tell ya it's worth the low price:)

I had this when my kids were small, we danced to it nearly every day. Now we dance with the grandkids, they love it too, and don't realize they are exercising. I've recommended it to all the nieces and nephews with their own little ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Intro To the Classics, April 22, 2009

By 

Cheryl Thompson "RiverGirl" (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hooked on Classics (Audio CD)

This arrangement includes pieces from some of the greatest classical music ever written, and while the work is definitely underscored from beginning to end by the permeating techno rhythm, I believe the intent of the work was/is to introduce classical music to the ears of an audience who may have never heard it outside of cartoons. In that regard, I think the album has been a stunning success! The ADDED benefit is that the rhythm is perfect for the treadmill :) Since first hearing Hooked On Classics, I have "graduated" to more traditional and "serious" classical music, something which may never have happened had I not heard this and loved it.
