Title: A poor CD
Product review: Alas, the original Amazon review is correct. This album is well produced but also very kitch. Beethoven in ambient soup is almost as bad as "Smoke on the water" sung by Pat Boone. I think that Orbit could have made a much better album by reinterpreting (open) jazz standards. I believe that there is no need to rearrange pieces of classical music that are perfect and complete in themselves. So I can only explain this CD as a cash-in operation after the successful Madonna album.My humble advice is, to those who like easy-listening classical music: buy the originals (classical CDs are often sold at a bargain price), since they provide a much pleasant, authentic listening experience. To those who are curious about ambient, buy any CD of the Orb, or Boards of Canada, or Plaid, or even the classic Eno.
