Search - Mantovani :: Magic of Mantovani

2010 two CD collection from the original classical crossover artist. Mantovani's Orchestra popularised classical music during the 1950s and 1960s, presenting it alongside classical-style arrangements of popular songs. The approach sold millions of records all around the world, and made Mantovani himself a star. Mantovani remains a household name, with an orchestra bearing his name still touring the globe, and the pop-classics approach has retained currency with the success of artists such as Andre Rieu. This compilation takes a lifestyle approach to the original recordings of the Mantovani Orchestra, presenting his best loved recordings via a new and accessible animated TVC treatment which references 1950s animation styles. 39 tracks. Decca.
