JAY Records have collected together an extravagant
set of Waltzes for this album. As well as the evocative title
waltz, the selection varies from the very traditional THE
MERRY WIDOW WALTZ or THE STUDENT PRINCE WALTZ to the very
modern NIGHT WALTZ from "A Little Night Music" or PARIS
WALTZ from "Candide". There is certain to be a number
of favourites for everyone in these specially selected pieces;
the EMBASSY WALTZ from "My Fair Lady" the WALTZ AT MIXIMS
from "Gigi", the WALTZ from "Bittersweet".
A number of the finest orchestras have contributed
to the making of this collection, including The Philharmonia and
The National Symphony Orchestra as well as such fine opera
orchestras as the Scottish Opera and New Sadlers Wells.
Carousel Waltz and Other Waltzes From The
Musical Theatre is a worthy addition to the collections of
those who follow the releases of JAY Records and a rewarding introduction
for those new to the label.
