Doc Severinsen is one of the greatest trumpet performers of our time. Other players may have better technique or intonation than Doc, but he can make music with such style and feeling, it's amazing.

This album is one of the most exiting trumpet collections I have. Doc's rendition of Napoli is awesome. Even the sublime Jesus, Joy of Man's Desiring comes to life with Doc's playing.

This is a great CD to start or augment any music collection.

The work of Doc Severinson and the Cinninnati Pops Orchastra goes beyond words. This album is a must for all, regardless of your music preference. Thank you Doc Seversinson for the countless hours of pleasure you have given me and my family through these performances.....

This album really lets Severinson shine. I always felt he was underchallenged on the Tonight Show. And Kunzel is at his best here, too. If you like Doc and Erik, also give a listen to Big Band Hit Parade.

If you love Doc then this is a must for your collection. Of all my trumpet CDs, this is my favorite, for that matter out of all my CDs it is my favorite. Definately Recommend

Absolutly true Doc. performance. The best horn player of all time. Passages and performance like Doc. holds a bolt of lightening.

Doc is one of the most talented trumpeters alive today, and this performance proves it. He sings through his trumpet with the mastery of the great tenors, lifting the listener as he soars with utter finesse to musical heights rarely reached by instrumentalists (even those more celebrated orchestral folks). I often commute between NJ and Long Island, and this CD has greatly reduced the stress of that unpleasant commute and given me plenty of inspiration to practice my own trumpet. Thanks Doc!

Buy this CD. You won't regret it.

If you have never seen Doc live, this would be a good substitute! This CD covers a good range of music without feeling like a "bits and pieces" album. I still have my trumpet, and if it was possible, I would have worn out many copies of this CD since its release way back when.

A great selection of music. Severson's performance is outstanding. Sound reproduction is exceptionally good. If you enjoy trumpet you should have this CD

Doc Severinsen is great! This is, in my opinion, his best CD ever. The Cincinatti Pops are also, without a doubt, the best Pops orchestra in the world.

I listened to a sample of "A Trumpeter's Lullaby" from RealPlayer and never have I felt so relaxed. It's great listening to on the job when feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or distracted. The soothing trumpet sound will make your body feel limp and your mind clear of negative and scattered thoughts.
