This review is from: Valses (Bonus Tracks) (Audio CD)

This is a delightful CD. The performances, orchestration and arrangements are all first-rate. And if you think all waltzes sound like the Blue Danube or the Anniversary Waltz, think again. These pieces have a real contemporary flavor that never get old. This is definitely one of my favorite albums.
