Amazon.com An all-star lineup of classical and pop musicians (including Kurt Masur, Andre Previn, Ray Charles, and Emanuel Ax) come together for a good cause on this disc (the American Cancer Society gets all proceeds). Most of the music here was written by contemporary instrumental composer Tim Janis, known for his uplifting, sweeping orchestrations. On the disc, these works are given sympathetic performances by the New York Philharmonic and the London Symphony Orchestra. Paul McCartney's impressionist composition "Nova" and the lush romanticism of Billy Joel's "Elegy: The Great Peconic" also get noteworthy symphonic treatments. Classical fans may be dismayed by these simple, sentimental themes that seem tailor-made for soundtracks, but there's no denying that this is all beautiful music. Previn loosens up his sleeves for a jazzy solo take on Cole Porter's "Why Shouldn't I," while Ray Charles gives a relatively straightforward vocal contribution to "Amazing Grace." This may not be earth-shattering music, but it's for a great cause, and it's all well-played. --S. Quinn Product Description Some of the world's top artists have gathered to create Music of Hope, a remarkable collection released to benefit the American Cancer Society.
