It's worth pointing out that the whole idea of this album was rather odd - Krupa put together a four-man percussion group, and together with a big band (containing a couple of familiar names like Hank Jones and Eddie Wasserman), set about recording a set of jazzy classical covers. This seems to have been part of a wider trend, and whilst this album isn't as good as Ellington's stab at the Nutcracker, it's certainly better than some of the other efforts out there
