‘This is a grandly scaled, nobly contoured reading, by turns monumental and ferociously dramatic. With biting choral attack, searing, spitting strings and scything trumpets, the Dies Irae has a terrifying intensity I have rarely heard equalled. The Rex tremendae, too, is overwhelming in its desperate fervour&… superbly played and vividly recorded” (Gramophone)
‘This performance benefits from marvellous sound and shows Davis secure in his tempo choices and bringing that combination of solemnity, grandeur and drama … Soprano Marie Arnet’s pristine tone and flawless intonation make her near ideal” (BBC Music Magazine)
‘A deeply felt account of a masterpiece from a conductor who has lived with this music for most of his professional life’ (The Sunday Times)
