three years ago, Richard Clayderman briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “The Swan”. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of Richard Clayderman energies, virtually a rebirth. This disc has all of the essential Richard Clayderman classics. Another great offering from Richard Clayderman.
Richard Clayderman offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. Only one song from My Classic Collection named Italian Sym No.4 In A#, Op.90 Allegro really got me. Aria - This happy song is an ode to optimism and an anthem. Waltz In A Flat - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Cavalleria Rusticana gets you up and jumping. I like to sing along with Barcarolle, though I mess up the lyrics sometimes. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Forever Green make listening to Richard Clayderman like being in some sort of time warp. It’s a great pleasure to listen to Hill Street Blues from the beginning to the end. A great put together song. Opening track Sleepy Shores shows the best of Richard Clayderman. Within the first few notes of Evergreen (Love Theme From ‘A Star Is Born’) it’s perfectly clear that Richard Clayderman is living this song. Music of Tara’s Theme (Main Theme From ‘Gone With The Wind’) is gentle, never overbearing. Such hits like Over The Rainbow will leave you hooked. Medley Of Four Seasons is, without a doubt, my favorite song, ever.
