The Boston Pops Orchestra, under ace conductor Arthur Fiedler, quickly returned to the album charts with Star Dust a mixture of orchestrated classical and popular pieces. (US:29)

"Renowned for both their classical and popular work, The Boston Pops under Fiedler's leadership recorded all kinds of music. Star Dust runs the gamut from pop to classical to operetta."

"Star Dust is another recorded milestone by Fiedler, Star Dust, Clair De Lune and other beautiful classics will simply delight you."

"The Star Dust LP is an appealing mixture of popular standards in lush orchestrations along with two reflective works by Debussy, including Clair De Lune."

"Listening to these plush tracks, it is amazing to realize that they were released in the same year that Fiedler recorded his first Beatles tune."

"Released at a time when they had fully evolved one style, and were about to turn to another, in the swinging '60s."
