Sampler Album
Review By EP116282,March 2013

This extended sampler album is for the most part enjoyable to listen to, but there are some bizarre juxtapositions. All of the music is claimed to be "Classics for Romance," and some of it would certainly meet that criterion. But Julie Andrews and Spem in Alium a few tracks apart? A few long cuts including Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet along with many shorter ones are all from longer albums, and several of those tracks might well prompt purchases of the albums in question, but they do not fit together in any seamless way. Changes in tone, tempo, and type of music might not fit for a romantic evening. On the other hand the album provides a chance to hear samples of music from many eras, composers, and performers at a most reasonable price.
