Book Reviews of The Penguin Guide to Recorded Classical Music 2009
Book Review: Penguin Guide to Recorded Classical Music
Summary: 5 Stars
As a beginning collector one is confronted with an enormous volume of recordings of unknown quality. All are acclaimed by reviewers with credentials that are often as unknown as the artists themselves. I mentioned my desire to enjoy good quality music without having to dedicate vast amounts of time to verification to a friend and he recommended this volume. I have found it extremely useful. It allows to spend time listening to good music rather than endlessly researching. ASIN:B002SB8PMY The Penguin Guide to Recorded Classical Music 2009]]
