1.0 out of 5 stars Not enough variety of good music, February 15, 2008

I have many Chinese music CD's, this one is in my bottom three. I am not sure what .."Very Best.." songs they consider these to be. The CD seems to have too many of the same type of songs--lacking variety of flute, drums and other types of music. I heard better selections from CD's in the public library.
