This attractive three-CD compilation does exactly what it claims to do--that is, contain ... more
more than three hours of relaxing music. Surprisingly, it also includes a few left-field gems in with the usual suspects, thus in addition to Grieg's "Morning" from thePeer Gynt Suite No.1(smoothly played by the Polish Radio Symphony Orchestra) and "Vocalise" by Rachmaninov (USSR Symphony Orchestra) there are also performances of the much less well-known "La Calinda" from Delius' operaKoanga(Northern Symphonia of England) and Five Variants of "Dives and Lazarus" by Vaughan Williams (Philharmonia Orchestra under Leonard Slatkin). Apart from a few questionable choices (the New Company's wobbly version of Tallis' 40-part motet "Spem in alium") the performances are all fine, and some excellent. The historical range stretches from the renaissance to the present day, and the juxtapositions are generally handled with imagination and sensitivity. Well worth anyone's money. --Warwick Thompson

Facts
Price: £1.40
No. of pages: 106 (Issue no. 607)
Frequency: Weekly
Other: More! has a website (www.moremagazine.co.uk) which has a lot of the same stuff as the magazine, it also has up to date news and chat room area. More! also has a Facebook page (www.facebook.com/moremag) which I've joined. The main focus of this page is to find people's opinions on stuff, to find people for articles in the magazine and to let people know about competitions.
Overall, I think £1.40's ok for a magazine. There are others which cost a lot more and are just pages and pages of the same thing. Whereas More! has variety and lots of different interesting subjects.

I don?t use this every day- I can?t afford to use it any more than as treat every few weeks. I still have the tube that I got for my birthday last year- I don?t think I have much left in it though. This is expensive, but I like it so much that when my tube runs out, I will replace it. Clarins have a promotional set of a full sized tube of balm, a small bottle of the body treatment oil and a half sized shower and bath concentrate in a hanging bathroom organiser for £28 (the sign in ...
waste of money, and yet more grist to my boyfriends mill (‘MORE shampoo?! Furr goodness sake woman!! etc etc)
So it was with great excitement but admittedly small real hope that I ordered ‘Kerastase Nutritive Aqua Oleum Relax Serum’ from my favourite website – lookfantastic.com. I also ordered a shampoo and conditioner from the Nutritive range – more of which later.
The products arrived the next day and I was thrilled! The packaging is lovely – all beige and orange, very very classy – and the smell was just wooonderful. How can I describe the smell? Well, it’s not like most modern hair products which are all about ‘fresh, clean’ fragrances. This is much more grown up and sophisticated – and if they made a perfume of it – I’d buy it!
The bottles are big ...
