CD Reviews

Marvellous marches

Mr. Ian A. Macfarlane | Fife, Scotland | 01/30/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"just a short review - this is great fun and great value. Orchestral arrangements of marches give a wonderful opportunity of adding different colours to lively tunes, which is what happens here. The Boult marches are the best - very exuberant indeed. 'Gaudalcanal', a wonderful march, has you on your feet almost cheering. It's actually a terrific CD."

A great collection of marches

"For anyone who feels patriotic and bombastic, this is the collection for you. a great variety of marches."
