5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!, December 18, 2002

By	Larae (Grand Rapids, MI USA) - See all my reviews

I thouroughly enjoy this CD! The music is beautiful enough to listen to all by itself, but also quiet and peaceful enough to listen to while studying for exams or doing homework. Mad about Baroque has been in my discman for many weeks and accompanied to the library many times. This is a great CD!
