Review by Robin Sijbesma

Robert Hall Lewis' self-titled album, accompanied by The Philharmonia Orchestra, is a stunning classical masterpiece. The album features a collection of beautifully composed pieces, each one showcasing Lewis' immense talent as a composer and the orchestra's impeccable musicianship.

From the opening track, "Symphony No. 1 in C Major," to the final piece, "Concerto for Piano and Orchestra," the album takes listeners on a journey through a range of emotions. The orchestra's perfectly synchronized playing creates a sense of harmony and balance throughout the album, while Lewis' compositions are both complex and accessible, making this album a delightful listen for both classical music enthusiasts and newcomers to the genre.

The album's standout track, "Piano Sonata No. 1 in F Minor," is a hauntingly beautiful piece that showcases Lewis' ability to create a sense of drama and tension through his music. The piano and orchestra work together seamlessly to create a truly mesmerizing listening experience.
