Full review
I have purchased and listened to many types of music and as a classical pianist always like to explore new CD's. This album has so many classics on it and is delightful to listen to.

Did you know that opening music in 2001 - A Space Odyssey was from Also Sprach Zarathustra by Strauss or that the background music in the British Airways TV commercial was the Flower Duet from the opera Lakme?

This compilation album is perfect whether you are a lover of classical music or just interested to find out what it is all about.

The track listing shows what can be expected on this wonderful CD.
