From Billboard - August 10, 1959: The Boston Pops under Arthur Fiedler presents a stirring interpretation of the well-known Richard Rodger's ballet from "On Your Toes." Also included are ballet selections from "Fancy Free," "interplay" and "The Three Cornered Hat." Sound is excellent. The orchestra should have a strong seller with their latest effort.
