"..the modernism of Stravinsky and the Second Viennese School on the one hand, the forms and practices of baroque music on the other...an impressive musical span, which Knussen energises quite wonderfully."
(The Guardian)
"Together, these two wiry, wrought works sum up so much of what has been essential to Goehr's music ever since [their premieres]: the modernism of Stravinsky and the Second Viennese School on the one hand, the forms and practices of baroque music on the other...an impressive musical span, which Knussen energises quite wonderfully."
(The Guardian)
"Little Symphony (1963) is a memorial to [Goehr's] conductor father, Walter. The title designates the smallish forces involved, not the argument, which is profound, original and 29 minutes in the working out. It is interpreted with idiomatic alertness by Knussen and the ASKO and Schönberg Ensembles."
