Notes & Reviews:

This CD contains both DDD and ADD recordings.

Personnel: Narciso Yepes (guitar); Maria Graf (harp); David Oistrakh (violin); Mischa Maisky (cello); Irena Grafenauer (flute); Peter Damm (horns); Jean-Yves Thibaudet (piano).

Another volume in Decca's lifestyle classical music series, For Your Dreams features restful, occasionally romantic pieces like Mozart's "Adagio Non Troppo From Flute Concerto in G" and "Romanza (Andante) From Horn Concerto No. 4." Delibes' "Dome Epais le Jasmin (Flower Duet)," Handel's "Menuet From Water Music Suite in D/G," Beethoven's "Violin Romance No. 2 in F," and Tchaikovsky's "Love Theme From Romeo and Juliet" are some of the collection's other gently melodic highlights. Of course, the album is appropriate for occasions other than going to sleep, but For Your Dreams does make an especially nice bedtime soundtrack. ~ Heather Phares
