If you’re a fan of Mozart – and what lover of classical music isn't? – here’s melodic news and a cheerful way to pay.
A Dutch label called Brilliant Classics has just come out with a bargain edition of The Complete Works of Mozart. Since the composer is indubitably the Viennese confectioner of the world’s most delectable ear candy, you may long to have the complete edition, even if you’ll have to listen to hours of baby bonbons. And now you can get the all-encompassing compilation in a whopping 170-CD collection for about $120.
Buying it is a no-brainer, especially compared to the priceiness of the complete works long out of Phillips, which retails in the $900 range.
Yet the Phillips edition is consistently delightful and an invaluable tribute to melodious Mo.
So which way do you go?
We suggest you buy the new inexpensive edition as your collection of the great composer’s complete works. But then buy The Best of the Complete Mozart from Phillips, a winning selection of highlights from its complete edition. The boxed set of 25 enchanting CDs retails in the neighborhood of two hundred dollars.
Then you’ll have the complete works cheap and the best of the costlier collection.
Enjoy. Sweeter sounds, thought often simply sweet, the ears of humankind have never heard nor will likely ever hear.
