"Aided by superb camera work, we see him, gaunt but energised, bringing sophistication and élan to Prokofiev's monster canvas, conjuring magic and fragrance from the Berg and driving the Pathétique to the edge of the abyss."
(The Financial Times)

"It's amazing the way Abbado brings the melodic writing to the fore in the very different worlds of the Prokofiev and the Berg Lulu Suite, crowned by Anna Prohaska's meaningful characterisation...As for Tchaikovsky's Pathétique, I challenge you to sit unshaken through the way Abbado nurtures string tone, body and vibrato from his Latin players."
(BBC Music Magazine)
