    5 out of 5 stars A Long Awaited "Gem".......2007-07-09

    My LP of this show was totally worn out, so I'm absolutely delighted to have this on such a great sounding CD. Davis is right up there with other musical luminaries such as Hepburn in COCO and Bacall in WOMAN OF THE YEAR and APPLAUSE. All three were non-singers who acted, and their recordings are really just a joy to have to offset soprani like Cook, Chenowith, and Lukker.

    This really is a must have recording for any true musical comedy lover who wants the unusual and historical. Davis's "Turn Me Loose on Broadway" is wonderful from her "Mistah conductah, iff You Pleeees" to her slightly off tempo "hey" in the dance break. Davis did try to sing several times through her career. Frank Loesser's "They're Either Too Young or Too Old" has been on a few collections, and there was that failed musical version of THE CORN IS GREEN entitled MISS MOFFAT that closed in Philadelphia. Betty Davis wasn't a good singer, but she tried!

    The supporting cast is excellent, and I think it's just a joy to hear an old-school musical by one of the forgotten greats, Vernon Duke. That's why I'm really pleased to have the Duke bonus tracks on the CD as well. It's a great value with Davis, Duke, and Lawrence Welk and his orchestra as well. The album was coveted for years, and it's just wonderful to have it in better sound than it ever was.

    3 out of 5 stars Bette Davis in a musical...yes, you heard right.......2006-10-05

    Bette Davis in a musical? In 1952, when her film career started on yet another downward spiral and she was unceremoniously labelled as "box office poison", the legendary Ms Davis decided to do the unthinkable, and made her Broadway musical debut in TWO'S COMPANY, a fluffy little revue that would have certainly folded a lot quicker if a mega-watt star like Davis was not in the starring role.

    TWO'S COMPANY ran on the box office power of Davis, and the moment she became ill and started missing performances, the closing notices were posted (the show limped along for 90 performances). Nevertheless, this curious jewel of a show was recorded, and now gets it's CD premiere thanks to British boutique label Sepia.

    Apparently, Davis was so embarrased by her performance, that she attempted to buy every single copy of the original LP in order to destroy them. One can just imagine Davis (in full Margo Channing mode) swaggering into a record store and slamming a pile of TWO'S COMPANY albums onto the sales counter ("don't bother to wrap `em!").

    While Davis was never a singer, she croaks out her songs quite well, and what she lacks in musicality she compensates with comedy and sheer brio.

    Performing the more demanding material is Ellen Hanley, known to musical fans for her Tony-winning role as Thea in "Fiorello!"; as well as Adrianna in the 1963 Off-Broadway revival of "The Boys from Syracuse", and replacing Polly Bergen in "First Impressions" (the Jane Austen/'Pride & Prejudice' musical of 1959).

    Sepia's remaster of the TWO'S COMPANY album (taken from original 78's) is quite crisp and clean, with some slight hiss and sonic wobble in certain areas (like towards the end of "Haunted Hot Spot"), although we are lucky to have this title on disc in the first place.

    Known for their copious bonus tracks, Sepia do not disappoint, and the TWO'S COMPANY disc is filled out with extensive supplementaries (Nancy Walker singing "I Can't Get Started" and Jack Smith with "I'm Gonna Ring the Bell Tonight"); and a whole "Vernon Duke plays Vernon Duke" section.

    Now that TWO'S COMPANY has been released on compact disc, we can finally hear what all the fuss was about.

    As Hammerstein writes in the opening song, "Many dames with lofty aims strive for lofty goals"--and Te Kanawa strives for successful crossover. Her beautiful singing exhibits impeccable diction and excellent phrasing; but "A Fine Romance" lacks anger and humor, "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" lacks a storyteller, and "All the Things You Are" lacks romanticism. However, happy songs like "All Through the Day," "Look for the Silver Lining," and "The Folks Who Live on the Hill," are successfully interpreted. Jonathan Tunick's orchestrations enhance Kern's beauty through his captivating use of obbligato instruments. A pleasant, if not wholly satisfactory, listening experience. --Barbara Eisner Bayer

    5 out of 5 stars kiri kern.......2007-03-29

    Kiri is sensational on this CD. Jerome Kern music is stupendous and the arrangements superb. Three top esses.

    5 out of 5 stars Kiri sing Kern is a great experience.......2004-01-18

    I love the way she sings Kern's songs. Though certainly not opera, Kern's songs benefit from an an operatic approach--not all of them, but certainly ones such Smoke gets in your Eyes, The song is you, All the things you are. I love Kern;s songs sung in many styles but Kiri's way is one of the best.

    On the other hand, I did not like Kiri singing Berlin.

    3 out of 5 stars Lacks Splendor.......2002-09-01

    Though I do enjoy Kiri's interpretation of most music, and this CD was decent, I did not find any piece particularly memorable.

    The voice is undeniably beautiful, and Kiri has managed to keep her maturing voice sounding somewhat young, yet I find that I much prefer her rendition of "The Laughing Song" to that of "Smoke Gets in YOur Eyes."

    If you love Kern, and couldn't care less who performs it, than purchase this CD. If you are a fan of Kiris', then perhaps it would be best to avoid this purchase...for it is not a shining star in her vast collection of CDs. All in all, it was a disappointment.

    5 out of 5 stars White Glove Kern.......2001-05-20

    I am the first to admit that most "crossover" albums, be they of classical performers singing pop or vice versa never quite cross over. This album does splendidly. Kern's music is the most related to classical operetta , and therefore the least jazziest. Operatic soprano Kiri Te Kanawa gives luscious, heartfelt readings of these wonderful songs, backed by glamorous orchestrations. Hearing a voice of such opulence and beauty in this music is a rare treat. Just listen to "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" ,"Long Ago and Far Away" or "The Song is You" and prepare to be swept away to another, more elegant time.

    3 out of 5 stars mildly disappointing.......2000-09-30

    Sometimes cross-over works, sometimes not. While Kiri te Kanawa has a beautiful voice, she never gets into the idiom of these Jerome Kern masterpieces sufficiently to convey their stories or their subtleties. Smoke Gets in Your Eyes especially stands out, she sings it with none of the pathos the song demands and her version pales compared to the Platters. The orchestral arrangements are decent and in many of the songs the purity of her voice is enough to carry them, but overall I would say this is a disappointing example of a crossover record. Ms. te Kanawa should stick to what she does best.

    The line between evangelist and entertainer has always been somewhat indistinct. But as showcased on this 43-track, double-disc collection culled from his '87-'96 recordings for Elektra/Nonesuch/Atlantic, Michael Feinstein's dedication to spreading the gospel of the American song often blurs it beyond recognition. While the singer's pedigree for the task is impeccable (a long-term stint as Ira Gershwin's assistant and early career sponsorship by Liza Minnelli), his interpretations often succeed by playing off a tense axis of fervent emotionalism and a joyous sense of irreverence.

    If his readings of romantic standards can sometimes tend toward the precious, they're often balanced here by sheer dramatic power and telling insights ("Isn't It Romantic" fairly bristles with ironic chauvinism) and a few loopy curves ("The Mole People," the Sherman Brothers' "The Ugly Bug Ball," and the previously unreleased "Rhode Island Is Famous for You"). Feinstein's dedicated song archaeology is also showcased on several gems: "Violin," a duet with Liza Minnelli; "My Favorite Year," a rejected ballad for the film of that name; the sublime "lost" Gershwin classic "Ask Me Again."

    Sprinkled with live performances (the forum where Feinstein's talents seem most energized) and studio outtakes and featuring a lengthy print interview with the singer, the set chronicles both the pioneering efforts of one of pop music's most successful revivalists and, crucially, the cream of his beloved American songwriters, from stalwarts Gershwin, Berlin, and Porter to later legends like Herman, Styne, Lane, Martin, and Mercer. --Jerry McCulley

    Album Description

    This album has some GREAT songs on it; sophisticated swing being one of my favorites. However many of the other songs are too operatic and lame. I give three stars but this album is definatly worth it just for some of the better songs.

    5 out of 5 stars Your love for this superb collection will be here to stay..........2002-07-18

    The magnificently talented Michael Feinstein has made one wonderful album after another for nearly two decades. Now that Elektra and Rhino have put together this anthology, I am blown away by the versatility and diversity in Feinstein's recorded output. Such amazing rare gems, combined with the most beloved favorites in the history of American Popular Song. Assembled with wit, intelligence, and obvious affection on the part of the record company, this set is a keeper. You'll love it!

    5 out of 5 stars He's done it again.......2002-07-15

    Is there anything this man can't sing? This collection is so varied as to be the definitive collection of songs for any occassion.

    This is perfect background music for a dinner party for a whole group but especially for two. Light, romantic and just gorgeous. You just can't go wrong when Michael Feinstein is your musical choice.

    Way to go Michael, you've done it again!

    5 out of 5 stars Absolutely 'S WONDERFUL!.......2002-06-10

    There are very few contemporary performers who can hold their own with the truly great interpreters of American popular song. Michael Feinstein is truly the ONLY performer of the "younger" generation who really understands what these songs are all about. His incredible knowledge of this music, and his enthusiasm and passion for it have fueled his career. Rhino Records has done a truly outstanding job of putting together an anthology that exemplifies why Mr. Feinstein has become so beloved by audiences around the world. The packaging is excellent, and filled with interesting photos and background information about many of the selections.

    This collection not only contains all the favorites one would expect, but a neat group of surprises too. I especially love the duets with people like Liza Minnelli and Rosemary Clooney, and the various collaborative efforts with songwriters like Jule Styne and Burton Lane accompanying Michael at the piano.

    This collection is a classic to be treasured. Bravo Michael!
    Bravo Rhino!

    I have every CD Michael has ever made and this is by far one of the best ones because of Michael's range in singing and his wonderful singing voice. I love his duets with Rosemary Clooney and Liza Minelli. He is a wonderful performer on this double CD and am looking foward to the next CD.

      Frederick Delius (1862-1934) is often called an "English impressionist," a term which implies that he can be lumped together with Debussy or Ravel. But just as Debussy isn't Ravel and Ravel isn't Debussy, Delius is an artist unlike any other.

      He has never been a world-renowned figure, and his music doesn't have the power or universality of Beethoven or Mozart, but for those who love Delius, he is one of the sublime creators in the history of music. I, for one, love his music, and these exemplary performances of some of his best-known works present this singular creative mind at his very best.

      Delius has some superficial similarities to Debussy and Ravel, but his highly personal harmonic thinking and his penchant for subtle but pronounced melodies make his music among the most accessible and rewarding of any in the classical repertory. The titles of his pieces, from "In a Summer Garden" to "On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring," demonstrate his preoccupation with beauty and the evocation of nature. His work is subdued, quietly passionate, and immediate in its rewards. In Delius, refinement rather than hysteria is the defining element.

      This recording has been justifiably praised as one of the finest Delius discs available, and other than the great recordings of Thomas Beecham (Delius' first and best champion and interpreter), you can't do better than Andrew Davis and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Look into Delius, and I think you'll see why his music sparks such fanatical devotion in his admirers.

        5 out of 5 stars "themes & cues savor the romantic that dwells in all of us".......2005-04-12

        What a crowning achievement to bring "Reel Love: The Cinematic Romance Album", released by Silva America and featuring The City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus ~ conductors are Kenneth Alwyn, Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Nic Raine and David Temple director of the chorus ~ one can only expect the highest quality of performances and quench the thirst of all "film-score-buffs".

        Sit back and unleash the first disc with composers taking each film score cue in alphabeltical order:

        "CASABLANCA (AS TIME GOES BY)" (Herman Hupfeld)
        "DOCTOR ZHIVAGO (MAIN TITLE & LARA'S THEME)" (Maurice Jarre)
        "EL CID (LOVE THEME)" (Miklos Rozsa)
        "EMMA (MAIN THEME) (Rachel Portman)
        "GONE WITH THE WIND (TARA'S THEME)" (Max Steiner)
        "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE" (Dimitri Tiomkin)
        "LOVE STORY (WHERE DO I BEGIN)" (Francis Lai)
        "PLAY MISTY FOR ME (MISTY)" (Errol Garner)
        "PRIDE & PREJUDICE (MAIN THEME)" (Carl Davis)
        "RYAN'S DAUGHTER (ROSY'S THEME)" (Maurice Jarre)
        "SENSE AND SENSIBILITY (THROW THE COINS)" (Patrick Doyle)
        "SOMEWHERE IN TIME (MAIN THEME)" (John Barry)
        "THEME FROM A SUMMER PLACE" (Max Steiner)
        "VERTIGO (SCENE D'AMOUR)" (Bernard Herrmann)
        "YOUNG & THE RESTLESS (NADIA'S THEME)" (Barry DeVorzon/Perry Botkin Jr)

        Arrangements that soar and then simmer into pure meditation of grandeur ~ classic film music prevails, as orchestration comes to the surface with pure originality ~ one masterpiece after another is long last presented as it should have been, is cause for celebration ~ each cue is a distinctive gift for striking modernism, touching on the transition of the period in this planets history.

        Second disc is waiting in the wings are the composers and selections also in alphabeltical order:

        "A MAN AND A WOMAN (UN HOMME ET UNE FEMME)" (Francis Lai)
        "BRAVEHEART (END TITLES)" (James Horner)
        "CINEMA PARADISO (LOVE THEME)" (Ennio Morricone)
        "EDWARD SCISSORHANDS (MAIN TITLE/ICE DANCE)" (Danny Elfman)
        "EMMANUELLE" (Pierre Bachelet/Herve Roy)
        "ENGLISH PATIENT (AS FAR AS FLORENCE)" (Gabriel Yared)
        "FINDING NEVERLAND (IMPOSSIBLE OPENING)" (Jan A. P. Kaczmarek)
        "GHOST (UNCHAINED MELODY)" (Alex North)
        "IL POSTINO (MAIN THEME)" (Luis Bacalov)
        "INDECENT PROPOSAL (MAIN THEME)" (John Barry)
        "JEAN DE FLORETTE (MAIN TITLE)" (Jean Claude Petit)
        "LAST TANGO IN PARIS" (Gato Barbier)
        "ROMEO AND JULIET (LOVE THEME)" (Nino Rota)
        "SUMMER OF '42 (THE SUMMER KNOWS)" (Michael Legrand)
        "TITANIC (MY HEART WILL GO ON)" (James Horner)

        Each composer has the passion and skill for exploring human emotions, coupled with a unique gift for striking exotic orchestral colors, make this with all it's splendor unforgettable ~ themes that ring with familiarity as each film comes to mind through music.
        Silva America gives the collector a treasure of thirty film cues that any "film-score-buff" would die for ~ in the past James Fitzpatrick (producer), Reynold da Silva (executive producer), mastered by Rick Clark and David Stoner (release co-ordinator) have given us compilation with such expertise and this one is no exception ~ keep up the outstanding limited editions and deluxe package releases, with your signature tidbits for all film music fans that's in all of us...gotta love it!

        5 out of 5 stars RONNIE ALDRICH IN DDD / HIS LATEST RECORDING.......2007-07-07

        This CD was released in 1987 under EMI "Music for Pleasure". Was the only one work of Ronnie in DDD, a recording made by Seaward. Was his latest work before die. The title was "For all seasons" CD-MFP 6016 A wonderful recording and a master work on piano and orchestra.
        In this re-release there is a missing song, "Summertime", that appear on the original CD and not in this one.
        Ronnie had recorded some of songs some years ago for Readers Digest label, under his name and the name of "Richard Alden": as April in Paris, Early Autum (you can find the original version in the album Moonglow, 4 CDs), september song and winter world of love). I really love that 2 versions, are different.
        I will buy this CD, because I only have 1 CD of "For all seasons", a gift of Ronnie himself to me (I'm very proud of that!).

        5 out of 5 stars ANOTHER GREAT RONNIE ALDRICH CD.......2007-05-12

        I AM SURE GLAD THAT I WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN THIS CD THROUGH THE "OTHER BUYING OPTIONS". OTHERWISE, I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE ONE OF MY FAVORITE RONNIE ALDRICH SONGS ("EARLY AUTUMN"). I FIRST HEARD THIS SONG DONE BY RONNIE ON AN EASY LISTENING FM RADIO STATION IN CHICAGO BACK IN 1981. I THOUGHT THAT "SEPTEMBER SONG", "FOREVER AUTUMN" AND "WHEN WINTER COMES". WERE ALSO DONE WELL. RONNIE ALDRICH, ALONG WITH THE ORCHESTRA THAT HE HAS ACCOMPANING HIM, DO SUCH A SUPERB JOB IN CONVEYING THE BEAUTY OF A SONG.
