If you are familiar with the piano of Frankie Carle you will truly enjoy these 24 familiar tunes, including "Star Dust", "On the Sunny Side of the Street", "Georgia on My Mind", "Don't Blame Me", "Ghost of a Chance", "My Silent Love", "I Can't Give You Anything But Love", and "Wrap Your Troubles in Dreams". If you are not familiar with Frankie Carle's music, you are in for a real treat as you get acquainted. His unique style will give you a wonderful hour of listening pleasure. As an artist of the 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's, his style is timeless, and you will find he does indeed have "the golden touch" on the piano.

This is undoubtedly one of the best piano recordings I have purchased yet. Not only is his style excellent and very relaxing to listen to, but the selection of songs is outstanding. For those who like the songs of the 30's and 40's, many pleasant memories will be revived. I have only had this CD for two weeks and must have listened to it 50 times already. I purchased this CD for two friends, who think it is fantastic. This is a must for lovers of piano music.

This is the best nostalgic piano collection that I've heard. Frankie Carle is so talented and the selection of tunes really brings back memories of the old standards. A couple of the tunes I'd never heard, but that was probably my fault. I listen to it at work several hours a day. Fantastic.

Working in an operating room can be stressful. To calm nerves and help the hours pass, surgeons request music. Being a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), I'm the one who provides the CDs. I thought some "cocktail piano" music would be great to play as patients entered the operating room and were prepared for their anesthesia, and Frankie Carle came to mind. I ordered this particular CD and found that it not only enchanted my patients, but charmed the young doctors and nurses as well. Mr. Carle's "golden touch" on the key board creates a mood of congeniality, sophistication, and elegance - even in an operating room. And if Frankie Carle can cast such a spell under those conditions... Well, you get the idea. This CD is a winner!

This product brings back the memories of days gone by wherein one could enjoyappropriate music played by an outstanding professional musician,in the manner that the composer intended.

I love Frankie Carle's music from my parents era, but would love to find a dvd with "Opus One". Anyone know where this can be found?
