Book Description
Regarded as the standard guide to classical music on CD, the 2002/3 edition of The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs has a new wider trim size to allow for even more updates. This guide takes into account the many hundreds of new and reissued CDs that have appeared in recent years while also including all the highlights from the back catalog. Arranged by composer, the guide lists all major recordings from each work-from remastered vintage recordings to the latest releases-with evaluations of interpretation and performance by the authors, as well as assessments of recording accuracy and advice on the best buys for cost and quality. This essential reference work is designed to help select the very best recorded classical music available today.

About the Author
