 A Break From Your Music August 29, 2008

This compilation is a soothing, relaxing getaway from the normal grind of todays music. It has a blend of choral, christian type music...it will put you in that mood when you just want some piece. I've added these tracks to my iTouch and will enjoy it always. I really think that this type of music expands your mind, and lets you melt away, and as a firefighter it gives me that chance to think about other more positive things than the pain that I see on a daily basis! Great Job Amazon!

I am not a classical music expert, and barely know this style of music at all or what it's called. but I love it. As the title states Amazon was giving this way for free, and to be honest I did not expect much. I was blown away with the quality of the recording. Thanks for such a great freebie, it has led to other purchases and expanded my musical horizon quite a bit.
An interesting album August 26, 2009

Naxos was formed in 1987 by Klaus Heymann, and is one of the two largest-selling classical music labels in the world. This interesting MP3 album is a collection of medieval and renaissance music (Lord Willobies Welcome Home dates back to the late 16th century). The selection is somewhat eclectic, with some tunes being orchestral, some choral, and some both.
Overall, I found this to be an interesting album, with all of the tracks being well worth listening to. If you are a fan of renaissance and earlier music, then you will like this album, as indeed I do.
Wonderful, Soothing music February 24, 2009

Some of the tracks on this album take you back to when choruses of monks filled medieval cathederals; others to when musicians played for nobles in their castles and manors. This is the kind of music that can let you float away after a stressful day.
Lovely sonic treat March 29, 2009

I was very surprised and pleased by the sonic quality of this recording. Most of the time MP3s sound (to my ears, anyway) like highly amplified trainwrecks - but not this one- even on the big stereo. I love early music, and it is clear that Naxos took care to provide a wonderful variety of artists in this album.
I hope that Amazon makes more music of this type available.
