June 2005
“A strong cast, with every role vividly portrayed; Paul Daniel conducts confidently and enthusiastically.”
“Paul Daniel's vivid presentation of the orchestral score… is as subtly coloured and powerfully dramatic as one could wish.”
2010 edition
****
“The role of Falstaff is a speciality of Andrew Shore, and he delivers a vivid portrait, at once comic and weighty...Yet above all, it is the taut and firmly paced conducting of Paul Daniel and the playing of the orchestra, superbly recorded, which make this set competitive with the finest versions in Italian.”
