Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'm not sure how other reviewers could have found this music weak and naive--too much Schönberg, maybe?Or maybe they were trying to delve its musical profundity, when in fact this music isn't profound and doesn't claim to be.It's just energetic, fun music from a composer who wasn't content to color within the Classical-era lines.If you can imagine "Creole Classical," in fact, that's a good description of this CD.Although the bulk of the album consists of rollicking showtunes (most of which feature the piano as the dominant instrument, since most of the songs are orchestral arrangements of piano pieces), there are some surprisingly tender, lyrical moments as well.The whole album is imbued with an intriguingly pre-Jazz flavor that combines with the classical structure to create some of the best moments in American music:catchy, energetic and always entertaining.For those moments when Beethoven (or Schönberg) is too much depth for one day, this CD is the perfect alternative... particularly at this price.
