5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CD, March 19, 2005

By	Me "Open-minded individual" (PA) - See all my reviews

I received this as a present and at first I wasn't sure if I would like it because I don't like some of the original songs, but there's something about hearing the orchestra play that makes me like all of them. Just try it out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Pure & Beautiful, October 30, 2005

By	S. Higgins - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you buy no other classical music, buy this collection. CD 1 (Relax) is perfect for dinner, quiet entertaining or just soft music while you're working. From "Come Away With Me", to "Whiter Shade of Pale" to "Knights in White Satin"... each piece is it's own movement - and moved you will be... Perfect for a romantic evening. CD2 is more robust, but equally entertaining. "Layla", "Livin On A Prayer", Stairway to Heaven", "Run to You" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" - you owe it to yourself to hear these licks performed by the RPO.

5.0 out of 5 stars Symphonic Rock, July 24, 2005

By	Frank A. Hall (Elko, NV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It really isn't rock, but it is a very pleasant presentation of popular music, rendered in creative ways by a full symphony orchestra. It sounds like the orchestra had a great time making these CD's.
