"Everything sounds spacious and natural from top to bottom. ... for me, his best period as a conductor was in the '70s with the BBC Symphony. By any measure he is exceptional here." " It’s great to have such an outstanding version of Gurrelieder back in superb sound."
"As a generous bonus we get Roussel’s Symphony No. 3 recorded in 1975 with the New York Philharmonic and also released in Quadraphonic sound." Huntley Dent, Fanfare, February 2020
