Most of this is live. Most of it is with orchestra and most of the album is from the 50's. It includes 3 songs from Grona Lund recitals and one from Atlanta. The 3 Rangstrom ballads are pretty nice even if a couple of spots sound like some dust got under the needle during transfer. He only recorded them for a radio concert in 1942 and are pretty hard to find elsewhere. The notes include a paragraph on each of the composers. The wonderful En Svane is from a beautiful performance with orchestra. ---bob turnley, amazon.com
