About

German orchestral maestro Werner Müller makes his ninth appearance on Vocalion with two further albums drawn from his extensive Teldec catalogue, both of which demonstrate that he was a master of light classical music repertoire in addition to the Latin and big band idioms for which he was best known. Echoes of Italy presents several timeless melodies from the land of song, including numbers that found international fame once English lyrics had been written for them: Quando, m'innamoro (A Man without Love), Ti guardero nel cuore (More), Alla fine della strada (Love Me Tonight). Muller also turns his attention to works by composers such as Toselli (Serenade no.1, op.6), Rossini (Finale from William Tell) and Tchaikovsky (Capriccio italien, op.45), and these and every selection in the album are treated to typically exquisite Muller orchestrations. Great Strauss Waltzes is, as the title suggests, dedicated to the undisputed master of the waltz, Johan Strauss. Classics including the Accelerations Waltz, Tales from the Vienna Woods, Roses from the South, Blue Danube Waltz and many more are given new leases of life under Müller's expert direction.
