Title: Wonderful music
Review: I have always admired MWS's ability to arrange music and his great talent for write music. Occassionally, on his Christmas albums and instrumentals on his regular recordings, we catch a glimpse of this. I have also always thought that his weakest skill is ironically his voice. Many times his vocal capability limits his musical creativity. With this recording, those shackles are loosed and he is free to write great music. Listening to this tour de force recording of just his music is such a pleasure. His arrangements are so emotional and span the scope of powerful/majestic to soulful/sorrowful. Hopefully, this will not be his last foray into this style. I await more....
