"A most worthwhile reissue of charm-laden music which should cheer you up on a cold winter's day"
(MusicWeb Jan 2006)
Lumbye is regarded as the Danish Johann Strauss as his music possesses a similar heady mixture of irresistible melodies and infectious dance rhythms, from lilting waltzes to dashing polkas. Rozhdestvensky conducts these pieces with both warmth and sparkle, and the disc received excellent critical acclaim when first released.
