The word 'confetti' describes small pieces of paper, of various shapes and colours, often thrown by guests at weddings. In musical terms it can equally apply to an assortment of pieces in different styles, conveying a variety of moods and emotions. In other words, almost a haphazard collection of tunes with no particular theme, except perhaps that they are all a little different. During the compilation of Guild Light Music CDs we sometimes come across enjoyable pieces of music which simply don't fit in with particular projects, and once more it is time to dust off some precious discs patiently awaiting rediscovery. Actually 'rediscovery' may not be entirely accurate as some have never previously been available commercially and, for most of the others, this is their first appearance on CD, so it is unlikely that the majority of music-lovers will have heard them before.

"a mixed recital of all sorts of things that turns up intriguing, sometimes serendipitous things during the course of its 78 minutes...This is another ingeniously compiled selection, giving as ever great value for money." (MusicWeb)
