"These performances sweep the field in terms of fine engineering, textural transparency,
luminous color, rhythmic �lan, and that singular balance between Romantic opulence
and classical restraint."

"The recorded sound is magnificent as is par for the course for Chandos recordings.
The performances are exemplary."

"At one point Chandos had two, count ’em, two Martinu cycles going on at once: Belohl�vek’s with the Czech Philharmonic,
and this one. It seemed symptomatic of a certain lack of direction that has turned out to be prophetic, as the label has gone
from one of the most exciting and interesting imprints in classical music to a bloated, drifting mess. Be that as it may, the
winner in the Martinu duel was not the team that you might have expected, as Bryden Thomson left us the finest complete
symphony cycle currently available, and Belohl�vek’s, while good, hasn’t the same drive and dynamism, and in any case was
never completed. That makes this reissue extremely welcome. Aside from a missing cymbal crash in the last bar of the
First Symphony, and Thomson’s controversially swift tempo in the slow movement of the Third, these performances sweep
the field in terms of fine engineering, textural transparency, luminous color, rhythmic �lan, and that singular balance between
Romantic opulence and classical restraint that is so much a characteristic of Martinu’s mature style. You simply can’t do
better, at any price."

"There have been good performances of the Nielsen symphonies over the years. Paavo Berglund gave a notable account
of number 1 and Myung-Whun Chung gave an outstanding performance of number 2. Bernstein excelled in number 3,
whereas number 4 had an awful recording with Karajan who never understood the work at all. Sixten Ehrling was a fine
advocate of the work. Kondrashin and the Concertgebouw gave a telling account of number 5 coupled with Sibelius 5.
Number 6,the Sinfonia semplice is a curious work and it would be charitable for me to say no more about it. There have
been some fine readings of these symphonies in more recent years and some performances have very good points.
But one has to consider all the factors such as tempi, interpretation, faithfulness to the score, recorded sound quality
and whether the spirit of the music is both caught and realised. Thomson does all of this. The tempi are well-chosen,
the clarity of the texture is always perfect and the music conveys exactly the composer’s intentions."
