Music reviews of The Golden Age of Light Music: Four Decades of Light Music, Vol. 1 - 1920s & 30s

Music Review: Beautiful
Rating: 5 Stars

This series of CD's by "Guild Light Music" is fabulous. This disc has no tracks with vocals. In fact, I would venture to say the entire series contains only orchestral compositions, no voice. You will find delightful orchestral renditions of tunes from the '20's and '30's. Some of them will be readily recognizable by classic motion picture enthusiasts. The performers here are all fine musicians and the technical quality of the sound remains free of hissing and other aural distractions common with earlier music. The liner notes are informative and provide one a fascinating mini history lesson while familiarizing one with the composers on the disc. Highly recommended.
