Presto Music is the UK’s leading ecommerce site for classical and jazz recordings (CDs, DVDs, high quality downloads and vinyl), printed music, music books and musical instruments.
I love Presto Classical. I have ordered many digital albums as well as orchestral scores. I have made an error with my latest order and have asked for assistance. I have received no replay and yet I have received an email from Chris O'Reilly asking to rate my experience. It is a little early for me to reply with 5 stars until this matter is settled. It seems simple enough to remedy and yet I have been waiting 24 hours for a respone.
I was able to download the zipped files easily which were also easy to extract and copy onto a memory stick. Sound quality excellent even with MP3 files.
Super fast download speeds, good prices, enormous catalogue - satisfied customer!
Presto's website is very easy to use and works a treat. Plus the mp3 album I bought was cheaper than on Amazon!
I could find the music I wanted to investigate, was able to listen to the extracts of the two potential purchases, buy one and leave the other aside.
Extremely wide range of good value classical music - I always go there first Extremely wide range of classical music. A lot of it available in HiRes and also Original formats for older recordings. The site is very easy to use and I particularly love the information they send out - just the right amount and frequency to encourage me to look beyond my usual range. I always go first to Presto as I have yet to find a better combination of range and value
When you login to purchase an item, the order form remembers who you are and even your card number, but not your name, address, or telephone. It is very frustrating that you have to fill in all this info each time, even if you are buying a download mp3.
Great selection of music. Easy payment and trouble free download. The quality of the recording was excellent.
Excellent website all around. I love buying from Presto and also learn a lot from their articles.
On browsing through Presto Music's website, I discovered that they currently had 'on catalogue several' music CDs that I'd first bought, as LPs, over 30 years ago; straight after various Ensemble Cantilena concerts in Glasgow. I put an order in for two CDs, my favourites from the Cantilena LPs I still have (but can't play). The CDs arrived promptly and I can play them on several devices, so I'm happy to be able to remember what I first heard in live concert all those years ago.
I never had any issues with purchasing downloads from Presto. Have been using it for years. I really love the fact that I don't need a download app to get the files. That, for me, gives Presto a major edge in comparison to other providers (*cough* Qobuz *cough*). Prices are usually fine. Thumbs up and count me in as a big fan of your site!
Very easy and efficeient
Easy to use website - preview, ordering and downloading all worked fine, despite all my ad-blockers and privacy settings. I thought the downloads had cancelled at one point, but it turned out they were still going so I nearly ended up with two copies of everything!
I buy tracks of classical music to record them to CD for private use. The Presto finder and listening previews are absolutely marvellous for searching for and selecting music/artists. A first-class system that reveals options one would otherwise never have thought of.
The website is pretty intuitive and it has a good search function. Downloads are a piece of cake. Above all, though, Presto has become our definitive source for the best in classical recordings.
The service offered by Presto music is always prompt and reliable. The staff are courteous, helpful and they resolve any problems quickly. My only criticism would be that Presto are continually pushing their new streaming service. In my opinion people either like to own hard copies of their music or they use streaming services and it is rare for someone to do both. Presto should be able to see from my purchase history that I only ever buy CDs. If Presto were to try and learn more about their customers then they would be able to tailor their offers to suit.
Great and fair pricing. When there is a sale, you get bargain prices which encourage you to build your collection and explore other artists and composers. This will create interest in classical music.
Great selection. Website easy to navigate. Downloading purchases very convenient and maintaining a library of downloads a nice feature.
My computer and cd players will not play SACDs. I ordered a much wanted Full SQs of Britten, thinking that my equipment would 'cope'. then I Google'd "Will a CD player play SACDs?" No. I asked Customer Service to cancel my order, despite it being my mistake, and, promptly Tracy Clayton /Customer Service obliged. What a relief.
I have enjoyed music pieces that I downloaded from Presto. However there is one thing that I wish you could do - accompany each download with the album cover as iTunes does. Otherwise you are the best!!
