"The recording, made in the Henry Wood Hall, Glasgow has plenty of ambience but is brilliant too...the Scottish orchestra in good form throughout."
(Gramophone on the Nutcracker/Swan Lake)

"All in all, then, plenty of 'entertainment' value the playing high on panache...the recording big-boned and open in the Chandos manner"
(Gramophone on the Shostakovich)
