If you're looking for traditional classical music... you'll be disappointed. This CD is not a fine classical performance by one of the world's great symphonies or orchestras. While the tracks do utilize great pieces of classical music as their base, they are not meant to sound as if they were being performed by philharmonic orchestra. If you're looking for a nice selection of music that seems to lull and satisfy the slumbering needs of a small baby... you'll be pleased you purchased this CD. Although our small grandson hasn't given me a "two-thumbs-up" when I play it for him while he's going to sleep, he does seem to nod off quickly and rests peacefully during his nap and bedtime. I'd buy it again and recommend it as a gift.
CD plays well and is without scratches. Strangely, it had a funny, musty smell and I had to clean the cd and case and leave it outside to air out before giving it to a friend. That said, I was able to get the smell out with some work.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
My son has listened to this CD before naps and bed since he was about a month old and is usually asleep within the first few songs. There are some really well known pieces of classical music (such as Mozart's variations on "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", Debussy's "Clair de Lune", and Brahms' "Lullaby"), but also some less known but lovely songs like Smetana's "The Moldau". The arrangements are simplified but played by real instruments--not just synthesizers.
It has a great amount of songs on it and the songs are all good. I was looking for a cd that played for a long time and I bought this one. I bought another kind and dont like it as well. The price was excellent!What can I say but I love the Cd and will probably buy another one from the series.
This CD has turned into are night routine. We listen to it together, then i put her in her crib and she falls fast asleep. Just like a fairy tale. This cd lets her know its bed time, and it also is stimulating her brain cells, and giving her a sense of lovely music art.
