best known for his brilliant production of numerous country, folk, and rock acts of the 1960s, jack nitzsche was a talented orchestrator who brought a bit of high-mindedness to the pop albums he produced. on this '66 release (reissued on cd 40 years later), the opposite dynamic happens, as he brings a sparkling sense of drama and youthful energy (perhaps a product of his years in phil spector's famed wrecking crew) to some of chopin's most affecting works. 'funeral procession' is given a stirring and cinematic treatment, 'fantasie prelude' floats on a romantic swell of strings and stardust, and the jaunty 'etude in e major' seems to be waiting for a dusty springfield vocal.
