Such Stuff As Dreams

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
This recording is a sequel to pianist Carol Rosenberger's "Perchance to Dream," a compilation of lullabies and other restful, tranquil music. It's nice to have a follow-up on such a warm and professionally presented album, and this does not disappoint. On the first disc of this two-CD set there are a number of simple tunes including themes by Mozart, Schubert, and Beethoven; on the second disc we hear their variations. Once again Rosenberger's playing seems suited to the primary goal at hand: putting children to sleep. Her execution is without edges or unpleasant texture of any kind. While it would possibly come across as slightly bland in a concert hall, this approach is perfectly suited here. -- Gwendolyn Freed

3 out of 5 stars Load of sweet melody but poor recording.......2001-08-19

The collections itself well deserve the title - lots of sweet, dreaming and classic melodies. However, the bad recording sound has taken away all the goodies created in the album.
