Our objectives
in presenting this "Hi-Fi Suite" were to offer
you some very
interesting music, designed to correspond with
track
titles, in either their literal or musical meaning, and thus
provide"Hi-Fi
fans" with a good workout for their equipment,
with this very
wide variety of frequency ranges and tone colors.
Leonard Feathers
provided all the basic themes and harmonic
substructures.
Dick Hyman supplied the orchestration, and in
several
cases, extended the original melody. There you have it.
Now all you
have to do is give the neighbors a one-way ticket
to Alaska, turn
your volume control way up, just sit back and
really
hear the "Hi-Fi Suite".
Released at
the end of the 1950s on the Mgm label
