When I listen to my LP, I seldom repeat the same side, well, this is an Exceptional piece, “The Mantovani Golden Collection, 20 masterpieces in Music” 1979 , Warwick Record, marketed by Decca.
Side one first music is”Charmaine”, I could feel the fresh morning breeze from a nearby forest into a tiny hut at the beach.
The Violin is so tender, mild and melodic…
2nd one is Some Enchanted evening, like now, I am listening in front of my side, again, the group of violin sings
The song of the fairy tale. From Distance to my house… it brings me some enchanted heart of my youth back to me.
“Moon River”, another interpretation from Mantovani, a light opening of violin with the familiar melody, recall my first date with my first wife in the Hot Bangkok city, walking along the street searching for good local food, but we went into the Oriental Hotel lobby , fascinated by the warm service, and again we ended up an a romantic night… Everything I listen to this music, I could not stop thinking of her smile Now The smile has been changed, to another tender sweetie
Who cares about me as her most important person in her life… I love her…
As followed by “love Story” the rhythm is a but laid back, easy and it plays with a lot of violins moving from Right to Left, this is the magic of stereo, I am afraid it would be a waste if you listen via the Surround 7.1 or so… as it would make you puzzled on where the strings are!? This great music will bring me another love story when I met her… in a special occasion for the first time.
Needed to say The Swedish Rhapsody is named the best light music as the grand opening music for the A Summer Concert festival in Europe.
If you had a chance to get this LP, buy it and Listen to tit. I am afraid I feel regret as I did not have a chance to listen the Manovani concert, but at least this album could be some kind of comfort… A Tube Amplifier is needed for this kind of soft music…
Still I have another 15 good music awaiting me to enjoy… thanks for Sham Shui Po’sPaul to give me this Record…
