Here are the second 20 of my "Best Classical CD's."

Visitors who have arrived at this site via The Classical Music WebRing
click here to check out my Home page.

There are three links at the bottom of the page to my other choices.

If you are wondering why there isn't an extra column in the table below for my comments, it's because each cell would basically contain the same words - 'Great music, good recording, buy the disc!'

I've also used low quality scans of the covers to keep the page download size to a minimum.
