5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Choice to Sample Composers and Musicians, November 26, 2004

World class musicians performing masterpieces. So many sampler CDs offer mediocre performers, but the musicians here are the cream of the crop. The choice of composers is also inspired. This is a great way to test the waters on choral music and find favorites without having to break the bank. One of my all time favorite CDs.

I wish I could hear these musical pieces live. This, though, is the closest thing to doing that.
