Clowning Around
this tape was exactly what I needed for my Halloween Clown theme.. great calliope music.. set the circus theme perfectly.

Calliope Cd
I cant wait to listen to this cd while driving around with the windows down this summer. Awesome tunes

very cute background music for toddler playtime
my daughter loved calliope music at the fair so i got this, she likes it and it's nice gentle happy background music for our daily playtime or whatever...some nice recognizable tunes too...

Not so good; sorry
The sound is authentic, the recording has fidelity, and the cadence is perky.

But this album is not the match for some of my older calliope collections on vinyl (I know: I'm a dinosaur, but I'm trying to evaluate the music, not the recording technology).

While trying to collect some newer calliope CDs, I purchased this. But all the tunes seem to be played in a single octave, with a few notes below that.

Alternate recommendations are welcome. Most reviewers seem to like this CD, recorded 1973+, so don't take me too seriously. It's just food for thought.

Good CD, has most of the best stuff on it.
