“Even if you think you know the work intimately, Järvi's interpretation will likely render it afresh in many ways, a precious gift from a major talent.” The Independent, 15th January 2010 ***** “The Bremen Chamber Philharmonic plays superlatively as in earlier releases in this series, and delivers plenty of surprises...There is intensity, disruptiveness and excitement here, and it is well worth listening to.” BBC Music Magazine, April 2010 *** “With any good Ninth the prospect of an imminent onslaught should posit itself right from the opening bars, and Järvi's certainly does that...Without doubt a worthy climax to a very fine cycle.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2010 | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
