Enchanting
David Saemann | 01/04/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"John Georgiadis is one of the best conductors of Johann Strauss, period. Forget about the high profile maestri who appear on the Vienna Philharmonic's New Year's bash. This is the real deal. The selections on this disc come from various members of the Strauss dynasty's residence in England. A few of the works only exist in piano score, from which they have been orchestrated skillfully. I can't say enough about the performances. They are relaxed, charming, and full-bodied. The London Symphony plays beautifully, and Chandos's sound is up to the high standards of the label. If you are sated with Johann Strauss II's greatest hits and want to try something new, this is a perfect purchase to make."
