| 9. |  | Titanic (1997 Original Broadway Cast) by Maury Yeston Price: $4.75 Customer Review: I bought this CD because I have been selected to play the character Isidor Strauss, former owner of Macys department store in NYC, with a local theatre company.

| 15. |  | Daphnis & Chloe from Boston Symphony Orch Price: $10.98 Customer Review:  James Levine's new recording of Ravel's "Daphnis et Chloe" is one of the best I've heard of recent years. Levine has conducted this ballet twice on record: once with the Vienna Philharmonic on Deutsche Grammophon and now this release on the BSO's own label. This particular piece seems to be Levine's... |

I got it primarily for Rusalka's song to the Moon (O Silver Moon) but all the other arias are just perfect.

| 18. |  | Lorraine Hunt Lieberson sings Peter Lieberson 'Neruda Songs' by Lorraine Hunt Lieberson Price: $10.18 Customer Review: One of the most beautiful recordings I own. The music is lush, profound, and moving. Peter Lieberson shares some of their story, which makes the performance both sad and triumphant. If you don't know Lorraine Hunt's work, this is a must. If you do, you already have it! |

You have probably forgotten that 'Pomp and Circumstance' is a... |

| 21. |  | Verdi - Stiffelio from Deutsche Grammophon Price: $18.61 Customer Review: Not everyone likes Verdi, but he's not the great maestro of opera without reason. Verdi means melody. Verdi means knowing how to grip us with recognizable emotion. This production of "Stiffelio" is a case in point. The Met has given us a sumptuous feast for eye and ear. While the story may seem a... |

Upon hearing this studio version from 1989 I was taken by the great beauty of Kathleen Battle's singing and reminded once again what a loss her early withdrawal from the performance stage was. With this CD however we have a record... |

Almost all of them I had heard in a movie or elsewhere. So that's when you say, "ah, that's the name of the song that they play in cartoons all the time". The recordings are very good quality, even if they are not the full piece.... |
