CD Reviews

These Are REAL Music Boxes!

G. Parks | Washington NJ USA | 01/05/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have BEEN to Rita Ford's Music Box Emporium in New York City, and can personally testify that these are REAL, antique music boxes. Most of them are quite large; the Regina is about table-top sized, and some (such as the Polyphon) can be the size of a large refrigerator or china cabinet(!). Due to such monstrous sizes, real range of pitch is possible. Anyone who labors under the unfortunate misconception that all music boxes must be High-&-Tinkly need only to listen to this album to be permanently cured of it -- particularly in the case of "O Sanctissima", near the end of which occurs a note so low that it is almost (but fortunately not quite) unmusical! (Play it, you'll hear what I mean.) My personal favorites among these pieces are: "Spin, Spin", "Ihr Kinderlein Kommet (O Come Little Children)", "O Sanctissima", "Jesus Lover Of My Soul", and of course, "Stille Nacht (Silent Night)". Christmas Is Come! :)"

Wonderful

"I owned this record years ago and loved it for it's purity of sound. Music box lovers and Christmas lovers will love this!"

An Heirloom!

"This record has been played in my husband's family every year at Christmas since he was little. When I was introduced to it, it instantly had the same effect on me. It says "Christmas" like nothing else! Since the record is in bad shape I was delighted to find it now on CD. The tradition can continue!"
