Description
Ray Conniff was one of the most distinctive voices in easy listening and orchestral pop, renowned for his warm choral arrangements and lush string settings that made complex musical ideas feel immediately accessible. The Many Moods Of Ray Conniff lives up to its title, drawing on a wide emotional range — from the sweeping romanticism of ‘Somewhere, My Love (Lara’s Theme from Dr. Zhivago)’ and the tender nostalgia of ‘Blue Moon’ to the late-60s pop energy of ‘Everybody’s Talkin” and ‘Spinning Wheel’. The inclusion of both timeless standards like ‘Begin The Beguine’ and contemporary hits of the era showcases Conniff’s remarkable versatility. This CD is an excellent introduction to his style and a satisfying listen for longtime admirers of orchestral pop and middle-of-the-road classics…
