[net.music.classical] Fresh Aire, Albums 1-5

(* glorp, munch, munch... *)
The first four Fresh Aire albulms correspond to the four seasons, spring,
summer, fall and winter.  Around this general theme are a collection of pieces
of which some are of the fast-paced, "bouncey" style and some are sort of
reflective or quite (almost brooding in spots).  Album 1, known simply as
Fresh Aire I, features several of the melodies you hear throughout the other
albums in particular the "chocolate fudge" motif.  Albums two and three branch
off a ways from this and bring in harmsicords and crikets (as in "chirp
chirp") to add to the melody.  Fresh Aire four starts off with a really neat
organ piece in a tocca style with backing percussion and strings, a really
interesting piece to listen to.

If folks are just dying for more info on Fresh Aire I'll see if I can dig up
the address of American Gramaphone and will list it and the titles off their
five albums to the net.  If anyone knows of a good source for these albums in
the northern Indiana area, please let me know as several people have heard my
set and would like to buy them at a record store (for returns etc..) instead
of through the mail from AG.
