"As a package, their claims are strong, both artistically and in terms of recording quality," awarded three stars by Penguin Guide. The Guardian wrote, "No one is more warmly dramatic in Prokofiev than Jarvi, making his issues consistently recommendable."
"The original recordings were made around 1990 and the sonics on the reissues are excellent."

"Berman is incisive in Prokofiev's Concertos Nos 1, 4 and 5, but the highlight of this set is Horacio Gutiérrez's hair-raising playing in Concertos Nos 2 and 3. Terrific orchestral support." BBC Music Magazine, August 2009 *****
