'Two superb soloists join Eschenbach in Zemlinsky's gorgeous and poignant Lyric Symphony'
(Disc of the Month BBC Music Mgazine July 2006)
"Zemlinsky's music is so much more complex, gorgeous and painful than any verbal resume can convey. Yet Eshenbach makes it all come together beautifully… (he) is joined by two superb soloists, on finest form, both with as strong a feeling for the greater melody as the conductor…Strongly recommended." BBC Music Magazine
"At times, this performance reaches awesome levels of power and excitement, yet incorporates Zemlinsky's more tender moments, too. That control comes from a deeply symphonic view of a score that can be seen simply as a song-cycle. Sound quality is superb in a real summer blockbuster."
(Gramophone Magazine Editor's Choice July 2006)
