"Another Berlin Philharmonic outdoor concert in the cast Waldbühne (Woodland Stage) amphitheatre… Centre of the programme is Rimsky's… Sheherazade. Järvi recorded a memorable version with the Royal Scottish NO, but this one's even finer… airily expansive and dramatic, the gorgeous orchestration translucent rather than cloying, and wonderfully played. Star guest... is the young violin virtuoso Janine Jansen, splendidly sensuous in the Thaïs meditation and dazzlingly spirited in the urbane Saint-Saëns."
(BBC Music Five Stars)
"If one had to evoke the Dutch violinist Janine Jansen in a word, it would be energy." (The Times)
