'Linn's recordings, set down in two audibly unalike venues with different reverberation periods, are top-notch, the thwack of Bartók's snap-pizzicatos almost too vivid for comfort...'
David Gutman - International Record Review, October 2004

'Mackerras' interpretation showed how Bartók was opening up a world of possibilities for the orchestra.' The Daily Telegraph

'He paints the Bartók score with rich colours and draws forth some splendidly rhythmic energy.' Gramophone

'...Mackerras brings vividness and a real sense of drama.' The Guardian

'...their playing here has a virtuosity, a rhythmic élan and a palette of rich orchestral colour to challenge the finest performances.' The Sunday Times
