This was the second classical music tape I bought when I began to get intrested in classical music. I wore the tape out and had to buy a CD. It has a selection of all types of classical music. It is a good CD for a beginner in classical music. The Astronuts listened to this tape during the Leonid shower this November.

CD CLASSICAL MUSIC FOR PEOPLE WHO HATE CLASSICAL MUSIC $10.49
This CD is the third tape I bought when I began to listen to classical music. I didn't wait for the tape to ware out before I bought the CD. Like the CD above, this CD also has a selection of all types of classical music. It too is a good CD for beginners.

CD THE CHOPIN COLLECTION: THE NOCTURNS/ ARTUR RUBINSTEIN I love Chopin's nocturns. Do they ever complement a starry night!! A nocturn deals with evening or night and is a dreamy pensive composition for the piano. Chopin is the master of this form. You have to try his nocturns.
