The String Quartet Tribute to Norah Jones Reviews:
Exquisitely beautiful 
2009-10-02 - I was looking for another version of a favorite song, The Nearness of You, when I found this arrangement by The Vitamin String Quartet. It nearly moved me to tears. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I will buy more of their music.
Another Tribute album... 
2003-12-02 - Upon listening to this CD, one ponders the question why re-create songs that are already in this arrangement? Norah Jones is very mello, dull and boring as it is. All of her work is through-composed. She just writes as she goes with no attention to form.
These Vitamin guys must be cranking these CD's out in bulk just hoping that one will cash in. Do we really need muzak versions of all these rock-pop artists? The music was created originally for a certain ensemble. Putting it in string format does not heighten it's credibility. Furthermore Vitamin keeps hiring the same people to do these arrangements,why not at least experiement and make logical new arrangements based on the music (i.e. maybe a smooth jazz for Norah) to offer a fresh version-whoops you might steal that idea now...also I heard the tracks from the guy that was originally hired to do this..Joe Andolino.. and he's a great arranger. Too bad Vitamin doesn't care. Based on the used copies available of this already it speaks for itself.
