"Excellent recordings of three of Englund's finest works, including the Blackbird Symphony, depicting the 'brutality of Man compared with the purity of Nature'. Panula's account is superbly played with an excellent sound. Naxos's centrepiece is the first of Englund's two piano concertos, otherwise unavailable, written for a competition in 1955 - which it won. Englund's own recording disappeared from the catalogue long ago, but Niklaus Sivelov proves a fine advocate. Strongly recommended." (Gramophone)
