From Billboard - August 24, 1959: An appealing, restful and for those who know Rome, a nostalgic set. The Melachrino ork with heavy bank of strings featured, plays "Three Coins In The Fountain," "Volare," "Arrivederci," the lovelocks "Castel Saint Angelo" scene from "Tosca," plus less familiar selections, all strongly identified with Rome. A delightful mood album, handsomely recorded.
