"It will be a remarkable feat indeed if this recording of Porter standards is ever surpassed. Feyer, a classically trained pianist, has a remarkably deft touch and an uncanny knack for the driving, rhythmic vitality of Porter's music. Acoustic guitar, drums, and other percussive instruments provide an essential, but unobtrusive, rhythmic foundation throughout. Thirty-four pieces are packed onto the disc, one often merging skillfully into the next, to form a series of three colossal medleys. Although recorded in the pre-digital era, the sound quality of this Vanguard Classics disc equals or surpasses the best contemporary recordings. If you like Porter, this one's a sure bet; if you think you don't like Porter, this one will surely change your mind."
