The Ring Cycle
The Ring Cycle
Richard Wagner

The Ring Cycle is 'music-drama' as it could be and should be.

The Complete Symphonic Recording
Les Miserables

This is the definitive Les Mis. In 1990, the best singers from Les Miserables productions from around the world got together and recorded this wonderful 3 CD version of the musical. It has the whole thing, all the way through. The lyrics are great, the music is great, and the passion is great. I originally had the cassette version, but I wore the t... (See the whole review)
