Our Take

If Iain Sutherland Concert Orchestra's latest album "Manhattan Playboys / American Light Classics" were a cocktail, it would be a mix of sophistication and cheeky charm, shaken up with a dash of pizzazz. From the moment the baton drops on the opening track, you are transported to a bustling New York City street, where the sound of jazz and Broadway musicals intertwine with a touch of classical finesse.

The album is a delightful romp through the golden age of American music, with Sutherland's orchestra delivering punchy rhythms and lush melodies with aplomb. Tracks like "Rhapsody in Blue" and "Summertime" are given fresh, vibrant interpretations that will have you tapping your feet and humming along in no time.

But it's not all glitz and glam - Sutherland and his orchestra also show their sensitive side on tracks like "Moon River" and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", evoking a sense of nostalgia and longing that will tug at your heartstrings.

Overall, "Manhattan Playboys / American Light Classics" is a delightful listen that will transport you to the heyday of American music with its blend of elegance, wit, and pure musical talent. So why not grab a martini, kick back, and let the Iain Sutherland Concert Orchestra serenade you into a world of timeless melodies and sophisticated charm. Cheers!
