"Four Stars ... (the Sibelius symphony) receives a convincing performance from Sargent ... the BBC, even in monaural sound, manages a slickly effective Northern sheen in this music, resonant with Brahms and Tchaikovsky, but no less provocative of still, vast expanses of wintry beauty."
- Audiophile Audition
Sir Malcolm Sargent leads the BBC Symphony Orchestra on a vintage performance of the Symphony No. 1 by Sibelius, recorded August 1956, as well as an epic reading of Holst's The Planets from 1958. Both works have been remastered for this reissue.
