"Alun Hoddinott is one of the best and most resourceful of living British symphonists, and the return to the catalogue of three demonstrations of that fact is welcome. … these symphonies are more than 'resourceful', more than examples of formal ingenuity … their forms seem to have been devised as a discipline for, but also an intensifier of, Hoddinott's increasingly vivid sense of orchestral drama and colour. And these devices of Hoddinott's are listener-friendly. The performances are excellent" Michael Oliver, Gramophone
