4.0 out of 5 stars Bon choix de pièces et bonne exécution, June 16, 2005

Ce n'est pas toujours facile de choisir un CD qui contient à la fois un bon choix de pièces et une bonne exécution mais ce CD est plus qu'acceptable; je dirais même qu'il est au-dessus de la moyenne. Donc, si vous aimez la musique militaire ou la musique thématique de films militaires, c'est un bon choix.

I wanted some rousing marching music. Only a couple of the selections on this album filled that. The sound quality is muted and the songs were all done by the same orchestra in the same style, which readily showed its limitations. Okay if you want some quiet, easy listening.
