There was also a lot of strings in MY STORY Classical, but its use was very subtle, very clever. There is a whole world between those two albums IMO.
Here I just listen to "basic" classical arrangements, there is no surprise at all, I can't feel a great creativity/investment behind.
Of course, it's just my opinion, I'm glad some people love it but I'm not sure this album will be on repeat or will last.
