Reviews 2011 edition
“All sorts of intriguing repertoire is here, and Shostakovich's ready fund of melody and his exotic orchestral palette...Chailly plays this repertoire superbly and receives magnificent orchestral playing from both the Concertgebouw and Philadelphia orchestras, with Decca sound to match.”
