4 out of 5 stars The price is right   October 15, 2008
If your not a huge fan of classical music but want the stuff found in mainstream movies, get this album.


5 out of 5 stars Thunder in my ear   October 13, 2007
I love this cd. The majesty and power of the music is overwhelming.

If you like a strong, powerful melody, you'll like this cd

I bought this CD to use in my classroom as listening examples. I'm not just a super big fan of some of the performances, but they are all good and for the price you can't beat it. That's why I gave it 5 stars. It's worth more than it costs by far.

This is a who's-who of great pieces of music you have heard all of your life, and never knew the names and stories! I listened to it over and over in the car and had my own concert! A friend borrowed it to add music to his Home Movies and it was perfect!

I bought this CD mostly for "Entry of the Gladiators," which everyone will recognize as classic circus music. The performance on this CD (by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops) is the best available version of Entry of the Gladiators. The rest of the CD offers mostly excerpts of classical music.
