Will Not Disappoint,
By Richard Walters "Dick" (New Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Till the Clouds Roll By: Songs Jerome Kern (Audio CD)
If you are inspired by the romantic songs of Jerome Kern, this collection will not disappoint you. Many pieces are performed by artists contemporary to Kern's composing career, and the music reflects the variety of these styles. Kern is still tops among American composers of romantic ballads.
3.0 out of 5 stars
