2011 two CD collection. Richard Hayman was one of the hottest-selling conductors of the 1950s, and was featured guest conductor with major Pop orchestras throughout the 20th Century. For the first time, Richard Hayman's major hit records are included within one release: "Ruby", "Off Shore", "April in Portugal", "Anna", "Theme from Shane", "Tammy", and "Blue Tango". Many tracks from his scores of LPs are also featured plus his complete album celebrating the compositions of Victor Young. Jasmine.
A Review:
Richard Hayman is, no doubt, best known as an arranger of music. He is certainly excellent in that position. But, he is also a virtuoso harmonica player! That such an instrument is typically not considered as a 'symphonic' instrument is to do the instrument and the player an injustice; consider Tommy Reilly and, in this case, Richard Hayman.
This program of select Victor Young songs (and more) receives a wonderful orchestral treatment by arranger and harmonica virtuoso Richard Hayman; a rare combination.
The music on these discs is delightful, the performances are great, the sound is very good, but those recordings that were DONE in STEREO are issued in MONO in this collection. It is for that reason that I give this rating 3 stars instead of 4.
