Actually, VERY good!
They make a surprisingly strong case for their arrangement. I was expecting another crappy cross-over style arrangement. It was nice to hear the music treated with so much respect.
And I love the cheers at the mention of Debussy’s name, too.
Had he not smoked (returning to an earlier topic on this site) he may well have lived long enough to hear it.
