Reviews :
Maurice Abravanel conducts the Utah Symphony Orchestra perfoming Fiddle Faddle and 14 other Leroy Anderson selections.
Leroy Anderson is one of America's best known composers, even if not by name. He composed a wealth of light music that insinuated itself in the memory of millions of Americans. How many of you are old enough to remember The Late Show and The Syncopated Clock, The Typewriter, Jazz Pizzicato, Sleigh Ride, The Sandpaper Ballet, and others.
Wayne Green of CD Review said, "Leroy Anderson was one of America's great popular composers, so this release is most welcome. If you're not familiar with Anderson's music.. you've got a tremendous treat coming. If you do remember 'em, you're going to love this album. All these pieces will have you whistling their melodies."
