The Andre Kostelanetz Show
I Love You from Mexican Hayride
von
The Andre Kostelanetz Show features orchestra leader Andre Kostelanetz and his orchestra in a radio program centered on popular music. Kostelanetz was known for presenting polished orchestral arrangements of familiar songs, bringing a concert-hall touch to music heard in homes.
This recording is identified with “I Love You” from Mexican Hayride, the Cole Porter musical comedy. The program offers a chance to hear a song from the stage musical in an orchestral radio setting, with the melody and arrangement at the center of the listening experience.
Kostelanetz’s style is smooth and accessible, balancing popular repertoire with carefully shaped orchestral sound. The result is a relaxed musical interlude for listeners drawn to classic radio orchestras and Broadway melodies.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
