"Solid performances of these symphonies by Marriner and ASMF. The stereo mix has superb sound. One can only hope that PentaTone keeps pumping these old classics out in such fine sound quality."
---SA-CD info.com

"We have a performance whose sonic qualities are closer to what Beethoven's audiences must have heard. ….We are never unclear about where we are at any given moment in either symphony, or where Marriner is taking us. In short, these are memorable performances, even in a crowded field."
---Dr. Phil Muse, Classik Reviews (December 2003)

"I can recommend this disc to all listeners: Those with CD playback capability will appreciate the clarity of the recordings and the effectiveness of the performances, which may just stimulate them to upgrade and thus be able to enjoy the many delights of SACD. "
