ISN'T WORTH THE TIME

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I heard this recording because I read positive reviews about this cd on the internet. I am not quite sure how this could possibly have received those kind words. I found this album to be insultingly horrible. If there were ever a professional album that showed how unmusical an "artist" can be, this is truely it. One web-site compared her to Rampal and Galway, but it is quite evident that she is nowhere near that level. That same performance can be heard at a mid-level college recital. I am in no way trying to take shots at Mrs. Hanson, especially because I myself am a flutist, but I find it awkward that when I invited some friends over to listen to music, they thought it was a "cute high school performance". If you want to listen to "artist" check out Thomas Robertello,Galway, Emmanuel Pahud, Carol Wincenc, and Bonita Boyd. Yes, she got every note in the music, but so what, certainly there has to be more to success than that."
