The Amazon links included with each review are there first and foremost for your convenience. They provide an immediate link which enables you to purchase a recording if you are inclined to do so. In turn, since these links direct traffic to Amazon, this website receives a small remuneration for each purchase. Thank you for taking this into consideration when buying CDs or downloading digital files.
