The piano and orchestra of Frenchman Emil Stern brings an air of Gallic charm to this Vocalion release, which compiles two of his 1950s light music albums. During that decade Emil Stern was one of the most popular musicians on the Continent, and both the Music for and Waiting for You albums display his penchant for lilting, romantic compositions played with verve and panache, with each one dressed in a striking, tasteful orchestration. The delightful melodies on offer include Why Do I Love You, Somebody Loves Me, Dinah, Autumn Concerto and Hey There, which sit alongside an equally delightful Emil Stern original, S'aimer d'amour. Elegance personified ooh la la!
