Description
Spanning over 1000 years of classical music history, this CD set is a wonderful look at the development of classical music from the earliest Gregorian chants to the huge orchestras we enjoy today. The narrator, Marin Alsop, walks listeners through each time period, offering historical information as well as glimpses into the lives of the over 90 different composers featured throughout the set. Each composer is mentioned along with excerpts from his/her most famous works. The CDs contain samplings of the songs but none of the complete works. A small booklet outlines the contents of each of the 4 CDs, and the fourth CD doubles as a CD-ROM holding composer biographies, information about music and instruments, quizzes and games, the text that is read on the CDs, and more. The CDs feature numerous tracks so it's easy to split up the listening into daily assignments or keep track of where you left off. Total running time is 4½ hours. Melissa
