This time I agree with Hurwitz...

Only "just as delightful as the first" then? Well, we can't all like the same music but there is a huge amount of light music from the same time/same place that is much better to my ears than this. I'm OK that not everyone agrees with me but I would be disappointed if nobody did.

Well, bring on the army of Serenaden-Fuchs-haters! Where are you all?  ;)

The CD is absolutely delightful. This is most definitely lighter music of a superior kind. Utterly beguiling melodies and the occasional lovely harmonic side-step. Brilliant! And all for Naxos money...

...btw there's some quite meaty stuff in Nos 4 and 5. Gorgeous too!
