| Almost in total agreement with Ed about this disc.Except for comments re the cover.|ts not to bad when you have it in your hands.The best work seems indeed to be Frank Bridges masterpiece.Certainly gives all my other versions a run for thier money.Other works are a very big bonus. Dear Bissie more simialir themed various composers please.Especially of this quality and I dont care who or where they are recorded if like this.One of the best discs this year. thank | |

| What a pleasant surprise! I've been collecting vinyl, CDs and - latterly - SACDs for over 30 years now. Phew... One of the great delights of this music collection mania is the unexpected. And this certainly falls into that category. Why buy a recording from an unknown orchestra and conductor of a great classic and three repertoire pieces that are somewhat off the beaten track? Well, this is why: 1) These are simply wonderful, nuanced performances, extremely well performed and directed. The warhorse Debussy, in particular, is given a performance of great sensitivity and finesse. 2) The whole SACD is thematically linked and the lesser known pieces turn out to be both interesting and well worth knowing better. The Bridge is fascinating, and the Zhou Long piece intriguing... 3) The BIS 'house sound' for SACDs is amongst the best, and this is a superior example of the breed- lucid, transparent and with a staggering dynamic range. Unreserved five stars, therefore for the SACD layer. | |
