5 out of 5 stars WOW.......2005-11-18

I know that WOW is kind of a small word but this CD ROCKS! I have loved queen for years. I originally bought this CD for my 10 year old son who took up the violin this year and who loves queen as much as I do but it quickly became mine. I've heard some pretty bad imitations, remakes, and ripoffs. I can honestly say that this CD is none of the above.You get 10 of Queens best. 1) Killer Queen, 2) Bohemian Rhapsody, 3) We Are The Champions, 4) We WIll Rock You, which happens to be my favorite on this disk, 5)Fat Bottomed Girls, 6)Crazy Little Thing Called Love, 7) Somebody To Love, 8) Play The Game, 9) You're My Bext Friend, 10) Another One Bites The Dust. The only downside to this disk is that they left out about a hundred other songs. I sincerely hope that The String Quartet comes out with a volume 2, but why stop there. They could go on forever with just Queen Classics.
Do yourself a favor. If you like Queen and Classical Music BUY THIS CD. You won't be sorry.

5 out of 5 stars YES!!!!.......2005-06-05

Two words: Bohemian Rahpsody.

THey could have released a CD with only this song and I would have bought/borrowed/stolen it to get it. This song is definitely a highlight, but don't stop there, since the rest of the CD will make you want to play it over and over again.

If you've been thinking about buying a String Quartet Tribute, but don't know which to buy, I would buy this one, without a doubt.

If you love Van Morrison's music, it will be impossible for you not to enjoy this CD.

4 out of 5 stars Relax and enjoy.......2005-07-02

Being a hardcore Van's fan, I took it as a duty to buy this album. Not that I'm against this cross-over idea nor I dislike String Quartet music in general. Only when you like a musician so much, you're always a bit wary towards reinterpretation of his music. Of course many have covered Van's songs so far and some have done a pretty good job (Bobby McFerrin's Moondance being an apt example), but this is an altogether different affair. The result, if not extraordinary as one would hope, is highly listenable and consistent. It demonstrates that Van's forte is not only is other-worldy voice, but also all the other aspects of his music. When a song of any genre is "classically" treated, the result may be double-edged, embellish it on one side with clever orchestration but also ruthlessly reveal the compositional shortcomings. I'm therefore happy to note that Van's songs come out as good as possible after the "washing", at times attaining a true symphonic value and what is someway surprising is that the uptempo numbers work as good as the ballads which were easier targets and in some cases already included strings in the original arrangement. Good on whoever selected the tracks that managed to go a bit ahead of the first albums, including at least two tracks which are more recent and well-suited for teh project. Moondance (the album) gets the lion's share, personally I would have ravaged more Astral Weeks or Veedon Fleece, but I'm not complaining, I enjoyed the album pretty much and would recommend it to Van's lovers who also like instrumental music.
