Album Description
This new CD comes highly recommended from the Tantara staff. Featuring duo partners Massimiliano Frani, currently Artistic Director of the Treviso International Piano Competition, and Brian Stucki, principal cello of the Chicago Opera Orchestra, this value-priced double CD features the songs of Rachmaninov, with the vocal lines transcribed for cello. "This is some of the most breathtaking music I've ever heard," comments Sarah Reinwand, Tantara's former operations manager.

5 out of 5 stars The Real Thing.......2007-01-27

I'm a HUGE Mantovani fan and have had mixed results trying to upgrade my collection to CDs. This collection is the original orchestra arrangements of all the classics. This is the one to buy.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Collection of Favorites!!!.......2003-07-02

The Mantovanti Orchestra shows off their "marvelous versatility" in this "wonderful" collection of "8 CDs", with titles that tell you "just what to expect", such as: "The Love Songs", "Memorable Classics", "Itallian Favorites", "On Broadway", etc. You can set the MOOD for practically ANY occassion! There are even some "popular" selections that we all know and treasure like: "Moon River", "Over the Rainbow" and "Autum Leaves"!
You will NOT want to remove these GREAT CDs from your CD Player, once you have listened to them! They make "nice" background music for small get-togethers or "lovely" background music for those "ROMANTIC DINNERS", for you and your "SPECIAL SOMEONE"!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SET!!! It is a GREAT DEAL for the money, even at the full price!!!

    5 out of 5 stars If you can find it, get it!.......2006-06-28

    This first, independently released album from the Virginia Coalition may not be as slick as their later releases, but it remains my favorite--somewhat more eclectic and interesting, to my mind, than the later albums (though I'm quite fond of them, as well). Both the melodies and lyrics appeal to me. "The End of the Road" remains my favorite track, one I nearly always feel the urge to repeat. "Spare Change" is probably the catchiest tune on here--the one that persuaded me to buy the album after hearing the band live in 1999. This is one of the few albums that I can listen to all the way through, without wanting to skip over any tracks. If you can get your hands on this album, do so!

    4 out of 5 stars Beauty and Sadness.......2003-02-05

    Originally released independently in 1998, COLORS OF THE SOUND is the first album by Virginia Coalition (affectionately known as VACO to their fans). Although looser and less polished than their other efforts when they had matured as a band and had access to superior recording equioment, COTS remains their most interesting and compelling work overall. It seemlessly combines a wide range of influences from straightforward, REM-like, alterna-rock to country and western to funk and go-go. If this seems like a mish-mash, don't worry: VACO pulls if off with ease. Much like the Band did on MUSIC FROM BIG PINK and THE BAND, the group members show off their musical prowess by covering multiple instruments and their gift for harmony is unmatched .

    Among the highlights are Andy Poliakoff's vocals on "Nicole's Song" and the simply stunning "The End of the Road." Paul Ottinger's baroque keyboards punctuate the weird, yet wonderful "The Waltz of Roosevelt and the Fat Lady," while Steve Dawson's wistful "A Bright Machine" remains the best thing they have ever done (and that's saying a lot).

    COTS will not just reach out and grab you in quite the same way that VACO's later CDs will, but once its quirky lyrical imagery, beautiful melodies and underlying sadness get under your skin, you simply cannot let it go.
