Again the Strings Cascade
Mantovani has become synonymous with "elevator music." Aside from the fact that about as many elevators still carry music as they do operators, this is cruel injustice. Arguably more than anyone else, Mantovani perfected a particular kind of "light classicism" in the 1950s and early 60s. The...

WONDERFUL... The Mantovani way!
Mantovani was of the best! We had almost everything Mantovani did on 33 1/3 until Katrina washed it away. I am delighted to be able to get this on a CD. If you don't want to become a Mantovani devotee, don't listen to this as it will entrance you. WONDERFUL music...

Painfully dull, cluelessly retro
It's possible that someone out there might still find favor with the over-orchestrated, over-produced music here - the kind that was once commonly used in dentist's offices and elevators to soothe the listener's nerves. These days, while other retro music like Martin Denny can have an agreeably...

Lifting the heart
Takes you back to a time when really good music was coming from car radios. Believe it or not, these fine tunes were big hits even with younger listeners.

Beautiful Timeless Music
Mantovani's Golden Hits has been in my life for many years. I first purchased this particular Sound track for my mother as a Christmas present in the 1960's as a 33 rpm record. She so loved the composer and many of the musical selections. She played this often and I grew up appreciating the...

BLast from My Past
My parents use to listen to Mantovani alot when I was younger. I bought this to relax in the car and at home as well as relive my past. The strings of Mantovani sing through recognizable songs from my past ans are very relaxing. If you want to relax and dream through soaring string sections...

This is a genuine recording with Mantovani on podium
In spite of the opinion of Neil Lickorish (Oakville, Ontario Canada)(previous) this is a genuine recording by Mantovani and His Orchestra (Mantovani conducting and not Stanley Black). You may see discography and CD lists of genuine Mantovani recordings at the Mantovani Fan Website:...

The Original "Mantovani Sound"
There are a number of new recordings available that go under the name of The Mantovani Orchestra. This is, I believe, an orchestra conducted by Stanley Black, a pianist from the heyday of the "Beautiful Music" genre. While pleasant enough, it ain't nuthin like the original. The genuine Mantovani...
