"If you’re mad about the Rite it’s an essential recording, fascinating to hear the emphasis Craft places on balance and colour ... it’s pretty amazing to hear the Philharmonia eat this score up, some of the best orchestral playing on offer today. Jennifer Frautschi is a real surprise in the Violin Concerto, making this masterpiece sound far easier than it is ... this is almost irresistible."
- Limelight
