Summary: Like WHOA
Comment: I watched this show by accident on PBS. I tried to tape a few of the episodes but couldn't wait and just bought it instead.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Wonderful - except for the Aussies
Comment: This wonderful collection of music and beauty is truly amazing. The music of course speaks for itself, and the locations are truly the most beautiful places on earth, as the absolutely superb narrator Simon Callow tells us at the beginning of each episode. The helicopter pilot and his cameraman should be given the very highest awards possible.
The problem is with the two dreadful Australians that keep popping in and out of each "destination". Their ugliness, truly awful dress sense, and dreadful accents really lower the tone of every single scene they appear in. Why couldn't the producers have just let Simon Callow take care of things?
If however, someone out there is thinking about making a documentary about the music of the Outback, then Niki Vasilakis and Matt Willis might be just the people you are looking for.

Summary: Rick Steves meets MusicHist 101
Comment: Being a music teacher, and having travel numerious times in Europe, I was fascinated by these DVDs. The presentation and photography was excellent, and the history and background of the various composers was engaging and compelling. I have used these as teaching aides in both my middle school and high school music classes with good results. Highly recommended!

Summary: A Must Have!
Comment: I have been waiting several months for this DVD to become available and was ready to pay several times the Amazon price (get it, it's a steal). It is a wonderful journey of sound and sight. If you love classical music you will absolutely adore this DVD. Guaranteed.
