 Music for Elevators May 1, 2007
Mantovani has gained a reputation in some quarters for producing "beautiful" orchestral versions of standard pop songs; in others, his arrangements have been compared to "elevaor music" - the kind of material once used in institutional settings like malls, elevators, and dentist's offices. In short, we have lifeless, bloodless cover versions of pop standards that by themselves have been regarded with disdain by many listeners.
This impressive compilation contains a bounty of those sweet violins and voices in a style that has long since passed its usefulness. The best moments are campy and unintentionally funny, as when Mantovani attempts "contemporary" hits by Nillson his ilk. This is orchesetral music for people who have never benefitted from a grounding in the classics. Compared even to outfits like Sounds Orchestral, the sound is drab and musty. It's hard to imagine anybody listening to this kind of thing anymore.

I had some old Mantovani LP's that I loved. This CD set is nice listening, but it sounds like it was recorded with an orchestra half the size of the originals. They are OK, but not what I had hoped for.
Why do another recording? Why not just reissue the LP originals on CD?
