Buyer Beware.......2000-06-17

Shame on me for not reading the fine print on this one. When I looked at the list of cuts included, it never occurred to me that I should scroll down past the 1st movement of Symphony No. 5 to make sure all the other movements were also listed. Imagine my suprise at first listen, when the 2nd movement turned out to be a minuet!

This purchase was a huge disappointment.

Good.......2000-06-07

This CD is really good, you may buy it.

P.S But too many companies made same music of this CD in others, you may find one is better than this, so 4 stars.

Pretty.......2000-03-11

I like the CD because it gets all of Beetoven's best works and fits them all together really nicely. The ensambles that preform it are very talented. If you like Beetoven, you'll love this.
