REVIEWS:
Marzio Conti's previous recording of Rota's music released on Chandos last year was very well received:
'Most of these are first recordings… but the performances are so loving, spirited and ingratiating that it is unlikely that any newcomers will best them. Splendid sound.'
- American Record Guide
'Altogether a pleasure.These are bright, capable, affectionate, well-pointed performances in good sound, with soloists who sound totally at home with the music…'
- International Record Review
