Title: Not the best choice
Product review: Rampal has the most beautiful playing style I have ever heard. Unfortunately, he wastes it here on Gershwin and Joplin. Those pieces are excellent in their own right, but they weren't written for flute, and for good reason. Even so, they might be okay on an album comprised of music within the genre, but there is no discernible common thread to all the pieces on this CD. If you want Rampal, there are plenty of other options; my personal preference is the "Best of Jean-Pierre Rampal," which also has Faure's "Berceuse" (one of my favorites), Vivaldi's "Il Cardellino," and Bach's "Sicilienne," along with several other gorgeous classical pieces.
