Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
These performances are also available singly, but if you like one, then you'll like them all. Stanislaw Skrowaczewski's is one of the finest, most consistent Brahms cycles of the digital age. He has his orchestra drilled to produce a rhythmically firm, utterly transparent texture which he deploys in honestly exciting performances, totally faithful to both the spirit and the letter of the score. At mid-price, this set is one of those underdog achievements that proves once again that the big names don't always make the best records. --David Hurwitz
