| Baby Einstein Lullaby Classics This is a 17-track, 35-minute concert featuring a collection of soothing classical melodies perfect to calm little ones As They wind down for nap time, bedtime or a bit of quiet time. Each piece, re-orchestrated for little ears by the Baby Einstein Music Box Orchestra, WAS Specially Selected to lull babies Into sweet, blissful dreams. Lullaby Classics opens with "Twinkle, Twinkle" variations by Mozart and includes calming and delightful melodies from composers Such as Bach, Beethoven, Dvorak and Debussy. It Ends With Brahms's "Lullaby" tucking baby in for a cozy, restful sleep.CommentsGeorgetta Negley says... This CD is not "sleepy" slow lulliby music. It kept my 6 mo old awake instead of putting her to sleep. Also very dissapointing was the "elevator music quality". If it was possible to rate this a zero, I would. I was very dissapointed in baby einstein for calling this a lullaby album. This synthisized music was anything but lulling to my baby - some of it was too upbeat. This is not an album to sleep to, not relaxing at all. Okay for play time, if you don't mind that there aren't "real instruments" playing. For better songs for baby to sleep to look for "disney baby lullaby" and "on a starry night" albums. Posted on November 9, 2010 Abbie Flautt says... My 8-month-old son and I listen to this CD every night, and by the Pachelbel Canon (track 7) he's usually sound asleep.It is NOT ALL SYNTHESIZER.The jacket clearly states that the "Music Box Orchestra" includes flute, piano, cello, percussion, english horn, and oboe.As a musician, I am not offended by the "easy-listening" versions of these classics.In fact, I enjoy them.They introduce my son to the timeless melodies WITHOUT OVERSTIMULATING HIM at bedtime.I find them relaxing too. Posted on November 10, 2010 Shawnda Hade says... I played this vd for my daughter when she was still in-utero, and she would always move to it.Now, at 8 months old, we still use it to put her to sleep every night. She just loves it. And, so do we!!! Posted on November 10, 2010 Monika Loflen says... First of all, let's clear up one misconception that some other reviewers seem to have --Just as the Baby Einstein videos are not designed to replicate the directing genius of such Hollywood masterminds as Scorsese or Coppola, the Baby Einstein CDs are not designed to replicate the great symphonies and orchestras of the world!The CDs do indeed utilize great pieces of classical music as their base, but they are not meant to sound as if they are performed by a 120-piece orchestra. In point of fact, the CDs are meant to work in conjunction with the Baby Einstein video series' various imageries and sounds, meaning they are designed to appeal in simplistic ways to the senses and interests of developing children.They take classical music (which is complex in nature) and replicate it in much simpler ways (via synthesized methods).This allows young developing ears to "tune in" to the various individual sounds and to identify simplistically with the overall melody.And isn't a toddler who wants to hear repeats of Pachebel's Canon or Vivaldi's Four Seasons a far cry more tolerable to Mom and Dad than one who wants to hear constant repeats of some big silly purple dinosaur singing?!? My husband and I love classical music and have many of the great classical works performed by the world's best symphonies and orchestras.However, attempting to draw side-by-side comparisons between Baby Einstein CDs and the great orchestras of the world is like attemtping to compare apples and oranges! The Baby Einstein CDs are a wonderful medium with which to introduce your child to classical music. After literally SUFFERING through several other "classic lullaby" CDs that were given to us as gifts and being very disappointed, my husband and I were thrilled with the musical content and performance quality of the Baby Einstein CDs.We have most of them now and have found them all to be of superior quality. As soothing baby lullabies and infant/toddler audio stimulations go, Baby Einstein CDs are positively enchanting!My husband and I have drifted off many times ourselves to the BE Lullaby Classics CD.We enjoy and appreciate the classical music experiences Baby Einstein provides for our child! Posted on November 11, 2010 Andreas Zaidi says... My son absolutely loves this CD.We have a CD player in his room and when he is acting tired or fussy we lay him in his crib and turn this CD on.The music helps him relax and before you know it...usually 3 songs into it...he is sleeping"like a baby!"We love, love, love this CD.We find ourselves humming classical music throughout the day...catchy tunes!! Posted on November 12, 2010 Dixie Mrkvicka says... My baby girl got this CD for Christmas and it's such a pleasure to listen to! I wish I had it when she was born!You'll recognize the classical pieces but they're played with the gentleness, for lack of a better word, that your little one will be sure to enjoy it. :) Posted on November 13, 2010 Floretta Healey says... Our infant daughter is 2 months old, and we have been listening to this CD with her every night since she was born.I don't know who finds it more soothing -- Anna or my husband and me!This is an extremely relaxing CD to listen to, and I highly recommend it to any parents who are interested in incorporating quiet, peaceful music into their children's (or their own!) bedttime routine. Posted on November 13, 2010 Criselda Rayside says... I was really disappointed to discover that every track on this CD is played on a synthesizer and not by the authentic orchestral instruments for which it was written.Mozart's Minuet in G sounds like it's being played on a (faux) marimba.A recording of actual instruments would be much more beautiful and better for a baby's developing ears. Posted on November 16, 2010 Rosanne Sarcinella says... I bought this cd along with a cd player for my daughter when she was 3 weeks old.The first time I played it for her she was asleep by track 3.Since then I play it softly when I am ready to put her to bed at night (on repeat) and do not turn it off until morning.When she is upset and fussy I will put on the CD and hold her close and she relaxes immediately.I was so pleased with this cd that I am looking into buying the other Baby Einstein CD's for her. Posted on November 16, 2010 Shavonda Chavarin says... Like other posters, I was very disappointed to hear that this was not real orchestral music.You would never know this from the packaging!My baby loves classical music but was indifferent to this album, and I can understand why, it's not nearly as dynamic as the real music -- all at the same volume, no emotion -- and it's just not very good.We have other synthesizer lullabies we love (I highly recommend Bedtime with the Beatles), but this sounds like a toy.
