Digital Booklet

"The recordings are astonishingly vivid, and the whole set provides a very impressive showcase of the Berlin Phil’s current condition as it nears the end of Rattle’s reign. The highlight is definitely the high-voltage performance of Stravinsky’s Petrushka, taken at quite a lick, but crammed with telling detail and sharply characterised solo playing."
- The Guardian
These performances are drawn from the Berliner Philharmoniker's 2017 Asian tour, their last under chief conductor Sir Simon Rattle. The program plays to all their strengths and gives a wonderful snapshot of the ensemble's musical health.
