Advantages: Top 30 in one collection Disadvantages: Not complete works
...This three CD set from ClassicFM contains the top thirty pieces in the Hall of Fame 2000, as chosen by the listeners of the station. However,
not all the pieces are complete, with only one movement being included. However, for people with a
small collection of CDs this is the perfect set to begin their collection with at a very reasonable
price. The recordings chosen are some of the best available. However, if you already have a sizeable
collection, you are better off finding the recordings separately. Definitely a good buy to start a
classical collection....

Advantages: Good background listening Disadvantages: Odd mixture of music on the Uplifting disc
...I will say from the start that I am certainly no expert on classical music. I do often have ClassicFM on the radio at home and recently bought their 2 CD set, Voices 2008. This is a compilation containing a selection of vocal pieces from the worlds of choral music and opera. There are pieces in this collection which you would immediately recognise on hearing them, even if their names are not familiar. In the set is a CD of relaxing pieces and a CD of uplifting pieces, so you have the choice of which best suits your mood. The notes which accompany the set are very brief, so here I am adding my own impressions along with information I have found from other sources.
