 Notes & Reviews
 
 
Brings a sense of urgency and focus to a work that has suffered from a history of over pretentious BPO/Karajan style interpretations. The'stripped down' style of original instruments and smaller orchestra size, and the spirited performance takes the 'work' out of a genre of interpretation that has in many cases blurred the sense of impact and importance in this composer's later work.
- Grant R Dixon, 08/27/1997, Australia
