Fantastic - By: L. Thompson, 17 Sep 2008 
This collection of bits & bytes represents a truly wonderful musical experience, masterfulin its interpretation & beautifulin its orchestral execution. Granted this sort of thing has been done before, but varying degrees of success. However,in this edition, I really truly feel that they have hit it spot on. I have enjoyed listening to this CD many times, & it is certainly one of the best purchases I have madein recent times! Simply a delight to listen to; allow this recording to transport you into a world far removed from the Hi-Fi, computer or ipod you are playing it on.
Mmm... nice! - By: Onewithall, 16 Sep 2008 
Really, on the first listen to this you will be stunned. The first track is Yellow, made famous by Coldplay. I didn't really like this songin it's original form, so I wasn't expecting much, but I was so wrong. It turned out to be beautiful, & it was the same story with all the other tracks. On the first listen it gave me such an emotional lift, & I was already feeling great! I'm pretty set now on ordering another one to give away as a birthday gift - I believe there aren't many people who wouldn't enjoy this. Who knew doing orchestral versions of pop songs could transform them so positively. I only wish there was more of this sort of thing about! Actually, there probably is a lot around - I just haven't noticed,in which case I thank Classic FM for their marketing & presentation.
Perfect with a large glass of wine! - By: Mr. Paul E. Reeves, 13 Sep 2008 
I bought this for my parents, but when they put it on I liked it so much that I bought myself one. Now I use it to unwindin the evening with a large glass of wine & my dogs. Its really beautifully produced & very intelligently orchestrated. Can't wait for the next one!
