Reviews

I've listened to this set several times now for a Music class at University and have found that not only does it skip several times on each CD, each skip lasting several seconds, but there are spots that are fuzzy and sound like some recording equipment malfunctioned or something. 90% of the set is perfectly fine, but that tiny 10% is annoying. There are no scratches or flaws on the discs either so I know it's not the physical media, it has to be the data recorded on it.Also, if you listen to each piece loud enough you can sometimes hear the conductor or other people in the background saying words, phrases, or even HUMMING along with the music. Maybe I got a bad copy, but this is my experience. 3 stars are good in my opinion, and the music itself is great.
