This recording of chamber works by Glinka and Dvořák is in many ways ideal [MC]

I cannot make a convincing case for this double set of live recordings conducted by Otmar Suitner [MC]

An all-Hungarian disc of real pleasures – Doráti’s approachable Concerto and Seiber’s orchestral music in splendid performances [JW]

(Déjà Review) Admirers of this great German pianist should certainly snap this up [JQ]

Rarely heard and recorded works, played with commitment and empathy [HC]

The version here of Busoni’s magnus opus for piano should now become the standard one [SB]

A better second impression of the Trio but the Nonet is the star here [DJB]

Brilliant Liszt performances breathe new life into great staples of the repertoire [RBe]

A 4-CD box of reissued concerto performances [JW]

(Déjà Review) Wonderfully poised & stylish accounts [CF]

The post-Enescu Romanian generation is exemplified by the colourful Paul Constantinescu [JW]

(Déjà Review) Full marks to Hänssler for giving enduring life to this most attractive and expert craftsman [JW]

Disappointingly inadequate performances of Lieder arrangements, neither necessary nor desirable [PT]

A fine addition to Gál’s discography [WK]

Despite splendid playing, the Minetti Quartet faces fierce competition [MC]

Violinist Mikhail Pochekin performs these Dvořák works with compelling verve [MC]

Committed performances of two mid-twentieth-century German works [WK]

This first volume in the projected series of J.S. Bach’s First Cantata Year has got off to a most auspicious start [MC]
