Great CD. I was very impressed with the excellent fidelity and orchestral interpretations. Maestro Kuntzel swings a mean baton and the Cincinnati Pops is definitely a great band!!
Stirring, varied, and always enjoyable. It fast became one of my favorite cd's. If it were old vinyl, probably would have worn it out by now.

Again I ask, can Kunzel do anything bad? This is a fantastic recording of American music done as only Kunzel can do it. You need to add this to your collection. Highly recommended!

I did not know all the tunes when I have ordered this CD and after listening, there are still some tunes that I do not know. However, the quality of recording is excellent, the choice of tunes is interesting and the orchestration is good. So, if you know these tunes and if you like them, you may buy this CD; it is not a bad one. It is not the one that I prefer because it is a question of personal choice but it is at least a good one.
