5.0 out of 5 stars Full-Spirited
I'm a classical music/opera person for the most part. But I find this CD entralling. Even the organization of the CD is ideal-almost like a symphony--with the rousing Candide Overture and the musical medleys at the beginning, the patriotic songs as the B section, and the Dixieland and other music from American musicals to finish up. And I particularly like the...

2.0 out of 5 stars Ho-Hum
I wanted some rousing marching music. This album is half asleep. The sound quality is poor. Apparently Mr. Williams writes better music than he conducts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular!, December 30, 1999
This review is from: John Williams/Boston Pops Salute to America (Audio CD)
The great composer/conductor John Williams leads the terrific Boston Pops Orchestra through several awesome American compositions. The sound is absolutely flawless! If you love orchestral pops, you can't go wrong with this!

John Williams/Boston Pops.. Salute to America.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good choice but..., June 28, 2005
This review is from: John Williams/Boston Pops Salute to America (Audio CD)
It is not the best CD that I have bought but it is an honest one. The orchestration is good, the choice of tunes is excellent and the tunes are well played. As you know, it is always difficult to say : I like it or I hate it because hearing a CD is a question of personal point of view. In my case, I may not say that I like it or I hate it, I prefer some other orchestration but it us a good CD.

1.0 out of 5 stars better think before !!, August 10, 2008
This review is from: John Williams/Boston Pops Salute to America (Audio CD)
The record quality is really bad. If you like to listen to music and if you got a "middle-good" equipment, you will hear a lot of noises and interferences. I love to listen to clear music. This CD was disappointing.
By the way... sorry for my poor english.

This review is from: John Williams/Boston Pops Salute to America (Audio CD)
Very similar in quality and music to I Love A Parade and a very upbeat reminder of why we are a patriotic nation. The arrangements and quality of the songs are great.
