    • Wonderful.....sounds similar to my favorite beautiful-music-orchestra OK-DREAMBAND. Sweet and romantic.CD "Clarinet-Dreams" is available for download (iTunes, amazon). My favorite track is "Dreambay-Serenade".

    • I actually hated this song around 1954, when it was played at local skating arena in Helsinki´s Brahe about every 30 minutes. Too much violins for me. As I grew older , I accepted it as a masterpiece of music & performance.

    • A river of languid melody. Enchanting. Reminds me of the 1950s, when the world was recovering from the general horror of world war.

    • Karl i totally agree with your comments there,although in 1954 i was a very young child i did however hear this tune many times,it was a favourite of my late parents,this whole peacefull arrangement has grown on me with age,,ha ha

    • The instrumental version reminds me the beauty of the Moulin Rouge in particular and Paris in general. In the particular, the extensions are, among others, "Can-Can", Tolouse Latrec and Edith Piaf. Unfortunately the introduction of lyrics to this exquisite orchestration resulted in a song titled "Where is your Heart". There is only word to describe it: Ugly!
