This is a very nice CD, with pleasing and sweet flutes accompanying the excellent orchestra. I play this at work to help keep me mellow. If you enjoy the flute, and especially if you play, then you'll enjoy this CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Beautiful Music, March 8, 2007

This review is from: The Instruments Of Classical Music: The Flute (Audio CD)

This is an excellent CD of music by some of the greatest composers of all time. It shows just how beautiful the flute is. The only criticism I have is that I thought the three parts of Bach's Orchestral Suite should have been grouped together on the CD. But this is only personal opinion and by no means takes away from the gorgeous flute music.
