Synthesizer

Finally replaced my old vinyl LP

An excellent album which manages to update classical pieces without destroying them. If anything, in my opinion, the synthesized reworking of Widor's Toccata in F is as good as when played on the church organ. This piece is my favourite on the album and it is truly majestic with electronic voices "singing" a kind of anthem during various parts of the track.Other highlights include Beethoven's "Sonata Pathetique" and the "Polovtsian Dances" by Borodin. Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight of the Bumble Bee" could well have been performed by the creatures! Another wonderfully performed piece is the "1812 Overture" by Tchaikovsky.I cannot rate this album enough. A truly great reworking of some of the finest classical music.
