Free Music Notes for Baby BachFree Music Review: Relaxing music for baby's bedtime Hit: 4 Stars
While I do want my baby to listen to Bach's music played with "real" instruments in an authentic style (which Baby Bach is NOT), Baby Bach is a very sweet, soothing selection of music. My newborn son and I both find this music very relaxing and it works like a charm to calm him down at bedtime! I would recommend this CD to any parent looking for new music to add to a baby's or young child's bedtime routine.
Free Music Review: Ugh, what's the point? Hit: 2 Stars
I like the Baby Einstein books, so I was enthusiastic about this DVD when I received it as a gift. However, my husband and I were both sorely disappointed. It's nothing but a 30-minute commercial for Baby Einstein products; it shows images of various toys while music-box type Bach melodies play in the background. There are two cute girls featured but they don't do much other than dance around a little bit and babble. I'd much rather play Fantasia for my children, which uses the original orchestral instrumentation and meaningful images.
I probably would have given this product just one star except that my 2-year-old actually likes it, so I suppose it's good when I need a break and don't want her to watch regular TV.
Free Music Review: OK but "babied" down Hit: 2 Stars
We got this CD when I was pregnant with our son, who is now 17 months old, because we knew the benefits of classical music on young children. I feel that the CD is just OK and it's really "babied" down or music box like as the previous reviews suggest. I think it's important for children to hear "real" instruments. I would not recommend this CD. If you're looking to expose your child to classical music, go with the real thing.
Free Music Review: yikes! would say any lover of classical music Hit: 1 Stars
The baby einstein series of music CDs is the equivalent of muzack for babies- horror to the ears!
I don't think babies need their music dumbed down to that degree.
Anyway, for the parent it's awful to hear. The beauty inherent in the muusic is completely lost, and replaced with whistles, goofy chimes, and plastic pianos. Absolutely horrible.
