The straightforwardly-named 25 Classical Favorites collects two discs' worth of well-known classical pieces, including Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 in C Minor, Op. 67: I. Allegro Con Brio, Bizet's Carmen Suite No. 1: Les Tor?ador, Strauss' Thus Spoke Zarathustra -- Prelude, and Rossini's Barber of Seville: Overture, Excerpt. Though the collection focuses on orchestral pieces, choral music is represented by Gounod's Ave Maria (After J. S Bach) and Handel's Hallelujah From Messiah. Other highlights include Pachelbel's Canon in D Major, Tchaikovsky's Excerpts from "The Nutcracker," Ballet Suite Op. 71A: II. March, and Strauss' Beautiful Blue Danube, Waltz Op. 314. Pieces by Chopin, Debussy, Dvorak, Wagner, and Prokofiev, among others, make 25 Classical Favorites a good general collection for casual classical music fans. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
