Welcome!
The classical music recording industry has never been so vibrant and exciting as it is now, in 2009. The majority of new recordings hitting the retail shelves are produced by small independent labels,
owned and operated by musicians concerned more with the quality and diversity of what gets recorded, than with releasing the same old and tired pieces performed by crossover artists in the hopes of selling to a larger market.
Here at Classical Music Sentinel, our mission is to search far and deep within the thousands of classical music recordings on the market at this moment, and identify the ones that we consider in our humble opinion,
to be the best for artistic achievement and recording quality. Our rating system is very simple. Every title listed or mentioned on this site, is very good and definitely worth adding to your collection.
The exceptional and definitive recordings, on the other hand, are given a TORCH icon, for being shining beacons in the classical music world.
