"Mikhail Pletnev is a forceful personality, and force is the ruling characteristic of this record. He directs the Konzertstuck from the piano, of which he is a sensational master, and there is no lack of the virtuosity that is a crucial part of Weber's keyboard writing; but there is also more to the work than that....One of the best performances is of the Freischutz Overture, which opens with beautiful, deep string stirrings and horns that sound clear and true, slightly from a distance. This is excellently done." Gramophone
