20 Best Naxos Releases


Hello All:

Let me qualify a bit. Looking for an X-mas package for my father-in-law.

I'm not that well versed in classical- as you may note from my Agon moniker. I know he likes some Strauss and other upbeat type pieces.

I'm looking to find him about 15 to 20 cds. I am in Canada ( Vancouver ) so I need the international releases.

Please list what you think I should be buying in the Naxos line. Your thoughts are much appreciated.

About four years ago, I posted a list of Naxos "Top 47" recordings, as determined by reviews and ratings in various classical music magazines and articles. Here is the link to that post in the A-gon archives:

Hope you find the list useful.

Best regards to all,

Thanks again A-goners!!

All this info has me covered as far as purchases.
Now if I can just get a little Motorhead in the cd player on xmas day as a counterbalance, all will be well!!!
I can't help with recomendations, but I can recommend

Every classical CD you can think of, logically organized for searching with great prices and great shipping rates.

I've bought many CDs there now and the service has been excellent.

They carry the full Naxos line.
