On the basis of 'naive listening' (without knowing anything about

expressed in the forum (many years ago) about RIccardo Chailly's _Jazz
Album_ (Concertgebouw Orchestra, 1993), _Dance Album_ (Philadelphia
Orchestra 1996), and _Film Album_ (Concertgebouw Orchestra 1999), all
with music by Shostakovich. Good stuff, beautifully played, in excellent sound. Is it right to call this 'entertaining', 'light' music? I'm not
sure.

It's certainly "light" after Bruckner!
