John Tesh has created a timeless collection of masterpieces that evoke the spirtit and passion of love. The gorgeous repertoire is well chosen and flows seamlessly. The stirring piano performaces of Daniel Pollack, John Novacek, and Anthony & Joseph Paratore show that these world class artists were selected by Tesh for their ability to capture a romantic mood, and send the listener to new heights. I have had this album for several weeks now, and I play it every day.--J.Jones

I got this album a week ago and have left it in my CD player since! It's just gorgeous from beginning to end. Do yourself a favor and leave it in your CD player and push repeat. This album is perfect to put on when you are just wanting peace and relaxation, and even better when you snuggle up with your loved one... This is sure to set the right mood for Valentine's day. Thanks to John for putting great music back into the world.

Very soothing music with definite romance in the background if you're a romantic type. Very nice to listen to when needing to get a break from the stresses of the day.

This is definitely a mood-setting album. To say that this CD sets an intimate mood sounds cheesy, but it actually does. The soft piano sounds, accompanied by the orchestra background really does have a mood-changing effect. If you like classical pieces, but prefer the modernized sounds (minus the heavy instrumental sounds that generic classical CD's offer), this is a good album. Rachmaninov's "Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini" is one of my favorite all-time classical piece, and this version ranks up there with others I've enjoyed. "Clair de Lune" is also a Debussy classic that any classical music fans will easily recognize, and "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" is another one that most people will recognize. All pieces are played with a very soft tone and soothing backgrounds, so if you're looking for a classical CD compilation that you can play through without having to skip around for the best pieces, this is a good one.
