Ultimate Mozart: The Essential Masterpieces

The best Mozart at an astonishing price!

     

Without doubt, this is a true bargain-what would have been the equivalent of 5 CDs in the pre-iTunes days, sixty-two of what some would claim are Mozart's best compositions for only 17 dollars! I would certainly recommend this for anyone interested in gaining a succinct overview of Mozart's vast catalogue, or who are making their first purchase of classical music. My favourite from this album (also downloadable just as a work) is K 622; his Clarinet Concerto in A Major - even if you know nothing about classical music, you certainly will have heard this. It is a beautiful snapshot of Mozart work as a whole. It is well performed by the Academy of St. Martin in the Field.
