Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded at Symphony Hall on 7 and 9 June 1979, Fiedler's final album gives one side to five Bee Gees songs from 'Saturday Night Fever' and the other to disco arrangements of Bach. It was rushed into release the month of his death at eighty-four, its cover restaging John Travolta's pose for the conductor then in his fiftieth Boston Pops season.
