5.0 out of 5 stars One of the gems of Naxos catalog, January 19, 1999
By aaronshu@hotmail.com (North carolina) - See all my reviews
This disc was a bestseller in Sweden and really should be one here too. The music itself is undemanding and light but sincere and tuneful. It will not impress you with epic grandor but will surely make you feel a lot better at the end of bad day. The performance is also idiomatic and distinguished.The sound is warm and spacious.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful and diverting, April 3, 2008
By midwestguy "midwestguy" (Peoria, IL United States) - See all my reviews
The Orchestral Favourites series are compilations of shorter suites, serenates, cantatas, and selected works of various composers of "lighter" classical music. All of the pieces on this disc are quite enjoyable--sort of a classical "easy listening", and I mean no insult by that term.
