This is a Vocalian re-release of two of the most elegant and exquisite LPs recorded by the original Mantovani Orchestra in the 1950's. All of the hallmarks of the Mantovani sound were launched in these early recordings of the large orchestra that made Mantovani a household name. Seven of the tracks were written by Mantovani including the title melody Candlelight, a truly remarkable orchestration. The Gold and Silver Waltz became a mainstay of many Mantovani's concert appearances and it, along with Song of Sorrento and Spring in Montmartre are soaring arrangements that will absolutely delight those already enamoured to the lushness of his music. Begin the Beguine will delight old and new listeners as well. Capture the essence of Mantovani's musical genius by acquiring this collection of outstanding music.
