“A sunny journey through popular classics starting with Tea for Two in Shostakovich's arrangement of Tahiti Trot and ending with Halvorsen's jubilant Norwegian Dances. In between are popular Spanish songs arranged by Manuel de Falla, a Rondo movement from Beethoven's Pastoral Piano Sonata and Delibes's much-loved Flower Duet from Lakme. Elizabeth Arno (producer)”
