Summary: Baroque- Greatest Hits
Comment: This is my second purchase of the CD - the first one got scratched. I usually have the music on in the background when I am at my computer. I also use it for background music when working with high school mathematics students in schools. I love it.

Summary: Any classical music lover can't be without it !
Comment: If you're a serious classical collector, this is a must have. Of course, even if you don't like classical but want to give it a try, this is also for you. The Baroque period was an important time in the development of music. Before Baroque, music carried only one melody or rhythim. With the arrival of the Baroque Guys: Bach, Vivaldi, Handel, music was able to have two rhythms go on at the same time. Without it, modern music would'nt exist. The music you will hear in this cd may be a bit slow but it is still very good. Oh, and may I add that the cover and the cd itself looks really classy, having a shiny jade color that makes it look like it costs a million dollars. The sound quality is very good and rich-sounding. Hey- the "Masterpiece Theatre" theme is here. I've always wanted it. It's track #1 called a "Rondeau" by Mouret. The Hallelujah choir is to be commended and the trumpet concertos, organ music and violin and string pieces are equally impressive. Some of the works are very familiar. In fact, listening to it, I recalled having listened to them before. This is great music to hear while doing assignments or reading. It has the "college" feel to it. I don't know. Maybe because in the movies you hear those trumpet tunes play whenever they show a university . Anyways, it's great.
