- VALUE VALUE VALUE
I think that this is really one of the best values you're going to find anywhere in the world of classical music, especially for beginners. You're getting 10 CDs, each filled almost to capacity, with the most famous works from the most famous composers in the history of classical music. The sound quality is excellent on every disc.

While I would have made some replacements on the list of who was included, I feel that this collection is a must-buy for anyone interested in exploring classical music in depth. Quality is high, quantity is high, you really can't go wrong.

- as they say "Good Value for the money"
I have heard only 3 out of the 10 CDs yet - Mozart, Beethoven and Tchaikovsy - and I think I like it. I give full marks for the selection of music. It has the pace and type of classical music that I was looking for. (I like and appreciate classical music but can't stand, nor understand, a lonesome violin screeching away for 55 minutes).
I think this set is a great gift and/or as an introduction to classical music especially to younger audiences.
As for the sound quality - it sounds like...well..a regular "Digital Audio" CD. Nothing to write home about. Its not the audiophool quality recording you might be looking for. Some tracks are recorded better than others. But if you think MP3 sounds freakin' awesome, don't worry about what I said about sound quality.

- Great for college students wanting to study.
I am a college student who was looking for some classical music to study to, and wanted a decent amount of it so I would not end up listening to the same concertos or overtures time after time.

The reason I gave it only 4 stars and not 5 is for one simple reason that doesn't pertain to anyone that will just listen to the cd's on a cd player. My grievance with this set is that only a few of the cd's are listed on iTunes, so if you want them on your iPod or on your computer for playlists, you have to manually enter the information (album name, track names, artists).

For the price, it is absolutely worth it for this box set. Only one of the discs is under an hour, while most of them almost hit the 70 minute mark, so there is no deprivation in the collection at all. And the audio quality is superb. A fantastic set for the money and quality that you get out of it.

- And This is Just the Beginning!
I ordered The Masters of Classical Music Box set as a Christmas present for someone who was just getting into the classical repertoire, and wanted to expand their library of music. What a great way to start! As soon as I received the set from Amazon, I thought it was the perfect primer to build upon with some wonderful selections included in the 10-disc set. There were the "tried and true" pieces associated with each respective composer, and there were some additional musical gems that made me wish I ordered a few extra sets to give to the classical music lovers in my life. Sometimes people get put off by the classics because the music is too "highbrow". Not in this case...the pieces are wonderful and very "classical friendly." It's one of the finer building blocks in putting together a comprehensive classical music library.
