Editorial Reviews
Ernest Tomlinson, The Light Music Society, UK
..playing is technically superb with which to present their evident love of the music..impressive..perfect interpretation

(Stephen Pedersen / Arts Reporter, The Halifax Herald - Canada)
...The quintet plays fluently, and with a pleasant ensemble sound...Salon Delights is a must-have album.   (Stephen Pedersen / Arts Reporter, The Halifax Herald (Canada)

Album Description
Nominated for an East Coat Music Award 2001 in the "Classical Recording of the Year" category, Café Chantant and other Salon Delights, features "salon" music, written for intimate gatherings in smaller venues - lounges, hotel ballrooms or dining rooms, small performance halls or simply any room where people gathered for light entertainment. This charming and relaxing music was composed at a time when light but descriptive music was often needed for theater silent films, and dance.

1 out of 5 stars Incredibly boring!!.......2004-04-04

I have simply never heard such abysmal lackluster playing as this...I call it Sickroom Serenade...not one piece on this record is memorable. Even the recorded sound is bad and gives off bad vibe...the clarinet is flat on the low e and f in relation to his string freinds...the piano is out of tune....I have heard high school groups play better...

Doubt they will sell any of these offerings...what is this marketed for??
