Recensie

Toen in 1996 een lijvige boxset verscheen van het legendarische Pet Sounds, was op een van de schijven ruimte gemaakt voor instrumentale versies van het album. Zonder de vocalen bleven de songs overeind staan en eens te meer onderstreepte het de compositorische kwaliteiten van Brian Wilson. Niet vreemd dus dat het Antwerp Philharmonic Orchestra zich waagt aan een klassieke uitvoering van het werk van The Beach Boys. Rob van Weelde (de cricket international) en Roeland Jacobs (neef van Pim, zoon van Ruud en stiefzoon van Thijs van Leer) maakten zeven symfonieën waarin per symfonie meerdere songs van The Beach Boys verwerkt zijn. Het resultaat mag er zijn. Het gebrek aan gitaren en drums wordt gecompenseerd door een ontroerende mix van bekende en onbekende songs van de band. De afsluitende zevende symfonie bestaat dan uit zeven songs van Pet Sounds en is van indrukwekkende schoonheid.
