"Danacord er i færd med at genudgive en række indspilninger eller genindspilninger fra LP-årene med klassisk musik ... Jeg begynder med en enkelt CD ... indspillet så langt tilbage i tiden som fra 1929 til 1932. Den blev optaget i Berlin med den danske operasanger Helge Rosvænge ... Noget af det specielle er, at Rosvænge her synger 20 danske sange. Rosvænge gemmer her operastemmen væk og falder ind i den på det tidspunkt store tyske underholdningsstil i populærsange. Det gør han godt ... Alt i alt er det en interessant CD uden at komme i nærheden af den musikalske sensation, som jeg måske havde forventet".

"What we hear on the present disc is certainly a far cry from the noble prince Tamino. This is dance music circa 1930 and it's the orchestra that is featured and Rosvaenge pops in and sings the refrain. Readers with an interest in good old times may remember that Jussi Björling at about the same time issued a dozen 78s with the same kind of repertoire under the pseudonym Erik Odde. And according to the liner notes many of his vocals were also anonymous ... From an historical point of view this is a valuable document and nostalgically-minded readers should grab the opportunity to wallow in memories. Personally I don't believe I will return to this disc very often but it triggered me to search out my old LPs, now copied to CD, and listen to the unique Helge Rosvaenge in his true element".

"Between 1929 and 1932 Roswænge made a series of Berlin recordings of light music, the voice youthful, characteristically brilliant and lustrous, the songs themselves enjoyable, the drily recorded accompaniments (the 'dance orchestras' of Paul Godwin and Ilja Livshakoff offering lively support) ranging from swooping strings and vibrant brass to accordion and pumping tuba. The sound is pretty good for its age ... Granted, we're not talking the likes of Lehár, Weill, Coward or the Great American Songbook in terms of musical quality; but if you want to hear a great singer jauntily letting his hair down, Helge Roswænge obliges".
