Reviews

‘It’s a big, deeply reflective statement... Pappano, the baritone Markus Butter and the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus perform it brilliantly.’

- Sunday Times

Performance: **** Recording: **** ‘The interplay between Mark Butter’s singing of Borromini’s own words and quiet choral interjections is beautifully judged here [Maxwell Davies’ No. 10], and is matched by superlative orchestral playing throughout.’

- BBC Music Magazine

***** ‘The performances here sound extremely well. There’s no question that Pappano has the necessary conviction to conduct both of the symphonies which are appealingly played by the London Symphony Orchestra.’
