    Oh Gawd. Not another saxophone+choir+echoey acoustic+ copycat CD....and allegedly 50 minutes' worth?

    Conductor: Johannes Hiemetsberger. Performer: Michael Krenn. Choir: Sine Nomine Chorus.
    GRAMOLA : 99027. GRAMOLA. 1.

          Good one, Mr Drax!
          "...the isle is full of noises,
          Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
          Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
          Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

            I failed the JRC/ JLU litmus test at the start of BaL because I thought it was Jan Gabarek Ah well, won't lose too much sleep over that...

            Quite liked it for a few minutes, but 50 mins, NO!!!!!!

            On the 50 minute aspect, is there a simple test for distinguishing between between deficient attention-span (cf discussions of "dumbing-down" on other threads) and proper intellectual disdain for 'More is necessarily better'???
            I keep hitting the Escape key, but I'm still here!

              I totally agree. I had intended to miss it altogether but it is really the only thing I heard on CD Review as I was called out to an emergency. I may try to listen to the rest on iPlayer.

                You don't need an attention span for 'mood music'. It's just there in the background for those who listen that way. It's not my way, but if it works for others, then good luck to 'em, I suppose.

                      David James and Jan Garbarek were interviewed yesterday on Front Row. I missed the item on CD, a rip-off I take it?
