A neglected composer, most well-served in a splendiferous recording [EJW]

A truly unjustly neglected composer, who deserves much greater attention [EJW]

It is a modern miracle to welcome to disc this forgotten worldwide sensation from 1911 [MP]

An important work in Braunfels’ output, exceptionally well served in this live recording. [JQ]

Interesting, but not enthralling [DJB]

(Déjà Review) Pleasantly lyrical and pure-toned [RW]

A wonderfully varied collection, in mostly excellent performances [GPJ]

An entertaining box of mostly the lighter, often hilarious, side of Shostakovich’s output, in excellent performances [GPJ]

A fine disc all round [WK]

A generous selection of Shostakovich’s copious but uneven production of film music [SB]

Possibly the worst Bruckner Seventh I have ever heard [LD]

Two German contemporaries and their very different approaches to the piano concerto [JW]

One of the leading cycles, in a fine-sounding stereo incarnation [RWe]

A fitful, erratic Norwegian symphonic cycle that rises to heights [JW]

A performance which may entice those whose main interests lie with Bruckner’s classical predecessors and may refresh the ears of more seasoned Brucknerians [GPu]

This may appeal to those interested in the byways of Germanic composition in the early 20th century [EJW]
