Title: Unfortunately Unnecessarily Uneven
Review: Evidently Telarc didn't trust an album with just the lovely renditions of the Pops, instrumentalists and choruses so, attempting to reach younger or less sophisticated audiences, they felt obligated to add Toni Tenille, whose performance is fine but less classical in style than the orchestra and doesn't really fit and Sherrill Milnes whose bland singing confirmed his prior bout of well-publicized vocal distress and the obvious failure to recover his former beautiful quality. But the worst sin was including Rosemary Clooney's absolutely embarrassing renditions of two pop standards, with her age-ravaged voice of poor quality, lack of breath control and total inability to sustain any note. The treble boy's voice was not so attractive to my ears as to the others who wrote reviews. An album in the pattern of the old Philadelphia Orchestra albums would have been preferable, but any listener can just fast forward over the poorly sung tracks.
