Not much is needed to be said about this EXCELLENT CD, it talks for it's self, just listening to it! Popular pieces like "The Shadow of your smile" and "Europa" are great arrangements that are performed with a lot of class.

The choice of pieces and styles is very wide, which means that you can find anything you like: traditional french music, popular tunes, classical themes, waltzes, Bossa Nova, jazz, rag......

The technical standard of the Noton's playing is very high. Complicated jazz improvisations are performed with such ease while at the same time performing with style and charm.n.

The excellence of the Odyssee, MIDI and Compact Super Accordions is perhaps most clear on the classical themes, although the sound effects and tone colour is AMAZING throughout the recording. This CD will leave you smilling and tapping away!
