5.0 out of 5 stars Bach and the Beatles...a perfect match!, November 24, 2001

This review is from: Bach to the Beatles (Audio CD)

I'm happy to have purchased this CD!! Here, pianist Laurie Holloway, the late, great violin virtuoso Stephane Grappelli, and flutist Elena Duran take the great music of the Beatles and J.S. Bach and put a modern spin on each track, with bits of rock and jazz thrown in for good measure. Mr. Holloway did a fantastic job in arranging each track.

Thank you amazon.com for making this CD available!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Yes, Jazz but no much, February 23, 2006

This review is from: Bach to the Beatles (Audio CD)

This CD is very smooth to ear. The player trio is fine. The flute (Elena Duran) is more present on Beatles music, Grapelli (violin) presents a splendid violin solo on Bach music (his Air On A G String violin solo is unforgettable). The jazzistic components are presented by bass, drums and piano, but they're not enough to give a genuine jazz touch to this disc, I think so. If you want mor jazzistic features for Bach and Beatles music, you must ear Swingle Singers and Jacques Loussier.
