Reviews
'The combined adrenalin of passion and mounting terror courses through the live event with sustained power and impact. Rarely can Mahler’s epic vision have been presented with such visceral energy and emotional turmoil.'
International Record Review, June 2009
'This live recording of a 1983 performance of Mahler’s Sixth Symphony might not be at the cutting edge of modern digital technology, but musically it sweeps away everything before it. Even compared to their fine studio account for EMI, Tennstedt and the LPO pull out all the stops in a reading that grippingly conveys this searing masterwork’s remorseless journey from nerve-jangling marching to a despairing finale punctuated by hammer-blows of fate.'
Classic FM Magazine, August 2009
