He went on to head major orchestras in Dallas and Atlanta and to guest conduct leading ensembles all over the world. But before that, Louis Lane honed his craft while working in the shadow of one of the great masters in 1947, legendary maestro George Szell chose the young, inexperienced Texan to assist him in Cleveland - InchI think you will doInch was the gruff maestro's verdict, exceptional praise indeed from that notorious perfectionist. Between 1959 and 1972 - with the full Cleveland Orchestra, the somewhat smaller Cleveland Pops and the chamber-sized Cleveland Sinfonietta - Louis Lane made a series of critically acclaimed recordings for Columbia. They display the Inchexceptional breadth and impeccable tasteInch for which this gifted but perennially undervalued conductor was lauded in a tribute by the orchestra's executive director. Sony Classical is pleased to present them now - many for the first time on CD - in a new 14-disc set. Reviewers were effusive in their praise when these albums were originally released on LP. Here is a sampling Pop Concert U.S.A. (1959) - music by Copland, Gershwin, Bernstein and other American composers InchIf only all the pops (or, for that matter, all the classics) were as good as this!. The orchestra plays splendidlyInch (Gramophone). On the Town with the Cleveland Pops (1960) - selections from On the Town, My Fair Lady, Oklahoma, The King and I and other Broadway musicals InchScintillating. Under Lane's enthusiastic direction, the Clevelanders play these familiar musical comedy excerpts with such precision and virtuosity that they emerge with glistening freshnessInch (High Fidelity). Music from the Films (1961) - Henry V, Louisiana Story, Bridge on the River Kwai, Gigi, Exodus and other motion pictures InchThis concert of music from the movies is so superior to most issues of it's kind that it calls for special commendation.
