Review: "The best symphonic recording I have heard, bar none...a stupendous recording of a probably-definitive performance." ~ J. Gordon Holt, Stereophile
A truly stunning recording of a wonderful performance of my favorite work by this composer. Unlike his more showy compositions, the emotions conveyed by this work flow quite smoothly. The Four Symphonic Impressions contain passages of amazing power which build upon a tranquil foundation. The fourth piece, in particular, rises from a calm opening into an unforgettable final climax. Reference Recordings has managed to capture the wide dynamic range of these impressions and package them on a disk that will test the limits of any stereo system.
