Music reviews of Fright Night: Music that Goes Bump in the Night

Music Review: It's all here (well, almost)
Rating: 3 Stars

Especially welcome are "Danse Macabre", which isn't that commonly recorded, and the absolutely delightful "Halloween" by Ives. What's scarier than an out-of-tune string quartet?

I give this CD only three stars because of a sloppy middle section on "Sorcerer's Apprentice" (the brass just don't mesh), the ADD quality, and the non-existent liner notes. I also would have preferred the waltz from the "Masquerade" suite to the Mephisto Waltz, and I'm not sure why "Mars" is here.

Still, I think it's a great collection for musicians who play these warhorses every fall. You can just stick it in the CD slot in the car or computer, and have everything you need to prepare right there on one disc. In fact, I'm buying a copy for my conductor.
