1001 Classical recordings to hear before you die (1801-1850) - "The feverish opening of the symphony's last movement which alternates the jagged orchestral writing with the more reflective viola. Themes are introduced and dismissed one after the other à la Beethoven's Choral Symphony. Gradually the brigands music becomes dominant and overwhelms the viola."
- Recording of the Month (Gramophone September 2003)
