Beautiful and Enchanting - By: , 29 Mar 2006
This is a lovely double CD set. Mendelssohn solo piano music is beautiful & very escapist. Although I am a classical buff myself, I am buying a second copy to give to my fashionable electric guitar playing mate who wants to get into classical but doesn't know what he'd like. I reckon this stuff is hard to dislike & very accessible to classical newbes. I also have no complaints about Barenboim's performance/interpretation of these works.

Awesome musicality and insight - By: M. Bradley, 05 Oct 2004
A wonderful recording that I guarantee you find yourself listening to time & time again. 48 unpretentious & attractive compositions that will take you away from the stresses & strains of life. A recording that should be part of everyone's classical collection.
