    An inexpensive yet high quality CD

    This is one of my favorite collections from NAXOS. The 1812 Overture, conducted by Adrian Leaper, is exciting and dynamic. Many of my favorite pieces are here, including the Waltz from Sleeping Beauty, the Waltz from Serenade for Strings, and the Andante movement from Symphony #5. High quality CDs need not be expensive. Try this one out. I bet you will enjoy it as much as I did.
