This is a lovingly-presented and very touching recording. Solo piano works by such composers as Kabalevsky, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Schumann, and Ravel come together in this collection intended to promote restfulness and calm in both children and adult listeners. With Carol Rosenberger's gentle playing, it succeeds marvellously. This disc is absolutely ideal for bedtime or times of quiet reflection. It might serve well in the car during traffic jams, too. Rather than just throwing together performances packaged on a theme (as a number of record companies are doing), Delos and Rosenberger seem to have tailored the interpretations to achieve the desired musical goal here. The liner notes have a lively section just for young readers. --Gwendolyn Freed

"Real" classical music for little ones.......2003-02-27
I bought this CD for my elder son when he was tiny; he listened to it nightly (and often for afternoon naps), and his little brother is continuing the tradition. What I like best about this compilation is that this is REAL music - real Brahms, Mozart, etc - and not watered-down versions or arrangements of the classics (like the vast majority of "classical" compilations on the market these days). (I suppose I am just a crank about this, but I grew up listening to real music, and I want my kids to do the same.) The performances are gentle and understated - not what you would want in a concert, but just right for sedating a small one.
Very Relaxing, yet still super.......1999-06-16
This CD is just wonderful for babies and adults and children. It has a good blend of music to introduce children to beautiful classical music. I think that the playing is just superb.
Just what we harried ADULTS need to unwind!.......1999-02-12
An almost perfect combination of selections for relaxing background music, which is played frequently as our dinner music.
I would have appreciated a little less "electronic doctoring" as some notes (especially the lower range) don't sound quite "true", but then again it could be my ears!
Anyway, am delighted that it does what it was designed to do...provide an enjoyable time of relaxation. Thanks.
Beautiful bedtime music for babies.......1999-01-04
This CD was given to us as a gift when our daughter was born and we always play it when putting her down for a nap or to sleep for the night. When we travel, we take it along to ensure that she will fall asleep as easily on the road as she does at home.The music is absolutely lovely and very soothing for infants and adults alike. We even ordered a second copy in case we were ever to lose or wear out the first one!
Peaceful, beautiful, soothing piano music.......1998-10-22
This is one of the most peaceful, soothing and beautiful CD's I have ever heard. I think it would put you or your baby to sleep every night. The music selection is wonderful and the artist has a beautiful technique on the piano. I loved it.

Stunning Goldberg Aria.......2006-02-21
Who is the performer of that amazing recording of the Goldberg Aria??!?! It must be Gould.
Great CD.......2006-01-29
Nice set of songs. I enjoyed it a lot, I see no reason why anyone wouldn't like this CD set.
Piano Perfection!.......2005-10-16
Saw it on TV and thought the music was beautiful, but forgot to write the information down... but managed to buy it online (now I see it frequently at the music stores)and I absolutely love this album -- all my favorite pieces! (I'm not big on writing comments or reviews, but was compelled by the artistry and passion I heard throughout this CD!)
A Classic in Every Sense!.......2005-10-12
I overheard some people at the record store talking about this album - one guy was actually a piano teacher and couldn't stop raving about it. I bought the album on his recommendation and couldn't be happier - it's stunningly beautiful. Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata is haunting and Chopin's "Minute Waltz" is spectacular in its precision and speed! This will make a great stocking stuffer at Christmas for my friends (... I'm getting them now cause I've gone to a couple places and they're out of stock). If you're into piano, this is truly a classic!
How disappointing.......2005-10-08
I was watching t.v. one Saturday and saw the ad for this CD. It promised that all pieces were "presented in their entirety." Hmmm, well sure if by "entirety" you mean only one movement of a particular piece. But if you are expecting, oh say, all three movements of Moonlight Sonata, then you'll be disappointed.
As for the pieces themselves, I was not impressed with the quality. I don't know whether that is a problem with the production process or the particular performers used. I was not moved by the performance of a single piece--and with 50 of the most loved piano classics, I epxected at least one to make me go "wow." I'm still waiting.
Finally, anytime you produce a CD and call it "The 50 Most Loved" anything, you are opening yourself up for criticism of the works selected. Where's the Rach 3? Mozart gets short shiff. I loved that Chopin's "Raindrops" was included but where was the "Heroic Polanaise"? The "Libestraume"? "Rhapsody in Blue"?
So, incomplete works, poor tone/lack of richness and depth in sound and questionable selection of "most loved" pieces. I'd save my money if I were you.

The Real Thing.......2007-01-27
I'm a HUGE Mantovani fan and have had mixed results trying to upgrade my collection to CDs. This collection is the original orchestra arrangements of all the classics. This is the one to buy.
Fantastic Collection of Favorites!!!.......2003-07-02
The Mantovanti Orchestra shows off their "marvelous versatility" in this "wonderful" collection of "8 CDs", with titles that tell you "just what to expect", such as: "The Love Songs", "Memorable Classics", "Itallian Favorites", "On Broadway", etc. You can set the MOOD for practically ANY occassion! There are even some "popular" selections that we all know and treasure like: "Moon River", "Over the Rainbow" and "Autum Leaves"!
You will NOT want to remove these GREAT CDs from your CD Player, once you have listened to them! They make "nice" background music for small get-togethers or "lovely" background music for those "ROMANTIC DINNERS", for you and your "SPECIAL SOMEONE"!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SET!!! It is a GREAT DEAL for the money, even at the full price!!!

FABULOUS SELECTION OF CLASSICAL MUSIC.......2001-05-16
Whether or not you are a fan of classical music, the truth is that everyone enjoys a few hours of peace and relaxation. This CD provides a wide selection of music from famous composers like Mozart to lesser known classical composers, which makes it the perfect CD to play on your stereo during those rare moments of peace. Play it while reading a favorite novel, or just simply sit down and meditate with the help of this classical CD. Beethoven's widely popular "Moonlight Sonata" for the piano and Chopin's extraordinary "Raindrop" are just two examples of musical pieces that will not only calm but enrich your life. With a total of three discs included at a phenomenal value, this is one CD that you cannot afford to pass up.

Miaow! The novelty album is sinking its claws deep in the classical market. We all know felines are jazz-swinging aristocats, but according to A Day in the Life of Leo: Classical Music for You and Your Cat they also are hooked on classics. So, for the puss who has everything, including a copy of Cats, comes this selection of 16 instantly recognizable classical melodies. The idea is a musical portrait of the daily routine of a pampered pet, the notes offering a brief, cute description to go with each piece. The connections are rather arbitrary--a Dvorák serenade for a catnap, a Shostakovich dance for a spider hunt, and various bits of Handel's Water Music and Vivaldi's Four Seasons for a spot of ornithology and an incident with a fur ball. You might find that your feline sleeps through the whole thing, the album providing more enjoyment for the owner who simply wants to relax with some undemanding classical moods after a day working like a dog. Speaking of which, if you have a canine, you might like to test its reaction to A Day in the Life of Lucky: Classical Music for You and Your Dog. Classical cat-astrophe, simply barking, or cool for cats? Try these pet sounds and see. --Gary S. Dalkin

Classical Music for Cats -- This is Silly.......2005-06-28
The music on this cd is typical soft classical fare played reasonably well--overall, no different than any bargain basement classical cd you get for half the price. Except...this cd has a picture of a silly cat. My overgrown spouse has two Bobos (one, now called Comet) who she claims have ears for classical music. Well, I for one, think these claims (and the similar claims of others) are bunk. Comet runs wild throughout our tiny little house no matter what music is on the stereo (you should see the puny-brained imbecile run wild when I play that screeching banshee Keith Jarrett!). And this "calming" classical cd is no exception. I'll admit, the music is personally soothing, but to claim this is music for a cat, is simply nonsense.
Very helpful during a stressful time.......2003-01-24
I bought this CD for my cats for Christmas. During the holidays one of my cats began losing her battle with heart disease. We basically hospiced her until she died peacefully. This CD seemed to really calm her and the rest of the cats (as well as me). Once I began playing it for her, she seemed more relaxed and comfortable. It helped us all out during a rough time. I play it still for my other cats who really do seem to listen. If you have a cat, you should give this a try. The music is all very beautiful and well performed.
I Enjoy the Music with My Cat.......2002-04-20
I bought the CD for my cat as her birthday present. She shows appreciation and stays calm to listen every time when I play the music for her. Also, as a person who knows very little about classical music, I find the work very beautiful and easy-listening.
Absolutely Great.......2000-07-08
The music on this album is so beautiful! It takes you to a completely tranquil state. This really is music for you and your cat! My tabby falls asleep when I play this and he is usually very energetic. Definately a must have for classical music fans, cat owners, or people who have to deal with stress!

I would love to review this item.......2005-10-08
I would love to review this item, unfortunately, Amazon won't send it to me. It has been over a month since I placed my order for this CD and two others, but they haven't been shipped yet. Maybe one of the big heads at Amazon will read this and expedite my order. I've given the CD a five star rating. Perhaps I'll own it someday. I can only hope.
Hauntingly beautiful recording.......1998-09-15
I have been collecting classical music recordings for 40 years, and this is the recording I most enjoy giving to friends who have an appreciation of classical music. It is a joy to listen to -- truly fits the title, music that one might want to listen to reflect upon in the evening hours. The Granados is particularly beautifully played. One of the larger dealers of CDs in Chicago tells me that they have trouble keeping it in stock -- not surprising to me. If you are seeking pure musical enjoyment, this recording will serve you well.
