| Review: | One of the few 'name' classical CDs I've ever paid full price for. I had been |
| | impressed with Holst' 'Mars - Bringer of War' from the Planet's Suite. This CD |
| | had some inventive cover graphics, and some nice reviews and writeups. I |
| | previewed it, and found it to be very nearly as powerful as the Holst work. |
| | |
| | If you're an armchair classics admirer, and you enjoy powerful music, look this |
| | one up and give it a listen. |
