This review is from: Gentle Dreams: The Best of Julian Lloyd Webber (Audio CD)

I had better expectations from this cd, but on the whole the music is great. Julian Lloyd Webber is a great cello player and the arrangements are very good. and is worth the money as it is a double album

5.0 out of 5 stars For all cello lovers, June 6, 2009

This review is from: Gentle Dreams: The Best of Julian Lloyd Webber (Audio CD)

Released in the UK as 'Made In England' Julian Lloyd Webber proves himself a master cellist with beutiful performances of well known pieces like Bruch's Kol Nidrei and Faure's Elegy as well as many welcome rarities. With 38 tracks this CD is an absoulte bargain!
