Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Buy It Comment: The tracks by Coldplay and Keene are excellent....my heart and soul and eyes shed a tear of joy, brilliant music, re-created into an excellent classical arrangement...I hope they do some more!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Beautiful and haunting Comment: Received CD this morning. Absolutely beautiful and hauntingly lovely. I especially like 'You raise me up'. Fantastic treatment of all the songs, relaxing and deeply moving. Well done Classic fM Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic Comment: This collection of bits and bytes represents a truly wonderful musical experience, masterful in its interpretation and beautiful in 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, and it is certainly one of the best purchases I have made in 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. Customer Rating: Summary: Mmm... nice! Comment: 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 song in it's original form, so I wasn't expecting much, but I was so wrong. It turned out to be beautiful, and it was the same story with all the other tracks. On the first listen it gave me such an emotional lift, and 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 and presentation. Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect with a large glass of wine! Comment: 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 unwind in the evening with a large glass of wine and my dogs. Its really beautifully produced and very intelligently orchestrated. Can't wait for the next one! More Reviews
