Randall Larson - Music from the Movies - July 2008
DCM’s series of Delerue interpretations – compilations for piano and for flute and guitar have appeared previously, along with several representations of unrecorded film music arranged for sampled orchestra – continue to preserve the unique beauty of Delerue’s music. With its emphasis upon flute and oboe, two instruments that were clearly near and dear to the composer’s richly melodic heart, this recording is especially recommended.
