Tchaikovsky - 100 Supreme Classical Masterpieces: Rise of the Masters: Explore similar items for $1.99 + free shipping

Jan 30, 2013 2:37 PM

100 tracks of Tchaikovsky for just 2¢ per track. And similar collections of many other composers, including Bach, Mozart, Chopin, Vivaldi, Beethoven, Handel, etc. etc.

For the most part, these are "intact" works... i.e. if a symphony is part of the collection, every movement is recorded, in sequence. (Some of Amazon's earlier collections had random movements from various works, but not completely intact works.)

Some of these collections were previously offered for $1.29, but if you didn't get them then, get them now for $1.99... they're still a great deal! (And, based on past history with other Amazon MP3 collections, they're likely to go up significantly in the future.)

Thanks for posting.

Whether it is a one time deal or not, this is great buy. In for a few.

Amazon cloud player is good, but Google Play Music is my favorite for Android.

@sharanmahapatra: As far as I know, you can download your music to mp3s on your computer or mobile device without DRM. The cloud player on your phone has a setting to automatically download new songs. I have yet to try and pull MP3s out into a separate collection, but as far as I understand, this is very easy to do and does not require any special software.

These "Rise of the Masters" sets are a great value -- mostly full works with very good sound quality by lesser-known (but nonetheless competent) performers. At $2 a pop, you can have a massive classical collection for next to nothing. [Also, do not expect this price to go up; it has been priced at $2 for a good year or so, save a month or two it briefly rose to $3].

Mozart fans should search Amazon for the "Big Mozart Box," a set of nearly 200 tracks (again, mostly full works and wonderful recordings) for $0.99, a price which will certainly go to $10 within a few weeks.

If you are looking for other composers the Rise of the Masters sets don't cover, try the "99 greatest" collections (most are around $5). The Saint-Saenz album, in particular, is awesome (I'm listening to it now!).

Finally, Amazon's Cloud Player is amazing! Using my work's wi-fi, I stream these classical albums from my iPhone speakers all day long while I work. Now, I can't imagine working without this stuff.

@sharanmahapatra: I'm streaming it on the Amazon cloud player (via Android) right now. No problems for me.

The classical music pieces are a good buy, but did anyone try to play with the Amazon cloud player? Does it work - it seems to be paused all the time.

I have a couple of these. The quality of the recordings are very, very good. Well worth the price if you're looking to expand your collection.

Get this long-dead artist's works before he "decomposes."

But seriously, The 5th Symphony in E minor is worth the price alone.

I hate it when they try to make the Fine Arts look like a Hollywood blockbuster.

"Rise of the Masters" ? ? ? Is this Tchaikovsky or Michael Bay?

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
