5Nice cd  Jul 21, 2009
I ordered this CD for my brother who is now taking piano lessons. The compositions aren't full length but they are good enough for a newcomer to get a feel for some Beethoven. I would recommend this CD to others.

4Purpose for listening  May 04, 2009
Hi, I was originally a little surprised with the many negative comments on this album. Then I remembered seeing a music professor listening to dozens of receiver / speaker combinations until his reel to reel tape of his orchestra matched what he heard at the concert.

O.K., I played Trumpet in high school band, and we won both marching band, and concert band contests during that time. I know what good sounds like, and I remember bad, very well. I'm currently a safety engineer and spend my time on the computer. I needed something to listen to, that I can't sing along with, to help me drown out office sounds while I do analysis. For my purposes, this is a 5x5 deal.

4Good Collection  May 03, 2008
Beethoven is my favorite composer. This is a good (but not great) collection, and all versions are good.

3Great for the road  May 10, 2007
I found this to be a nice collection of favorites, especially to keep in the car and listen to. It is a variety of well known compilations. Although not encompassing, it is perfect as a review for driving, relaxing, and enjoyment. Plus, the price is right!
