Title: Good for Hallowe'en!
Review: While no classical compilation could be considered by a collector to include the "best" performances of well-known pieces like these, this one consists of very solid renditions. It represents EMI's equivalent of "Fright Night"(cbs/sony), "Chiller"(telarc), "Classics from the Crypt"(rca), "Mephisto & Co."(reference), "Witches'Brew"(asv), and others. The idea is to present pieces that are frightening, dramatic, eerie, or mysterious. One advantage that this collection has over the aforementioned ones is that it simply contains more music, the others being single discs. Fun anytime, but particularly appropriate for Hallowe'en.
