(4 out of 5 stars)

"Hess is meticulous and delicate. But not the orchestra which is rather heavy on the strings. The sound needs some adjusting to. Heard Anda with Karajan in a recently released DG live recording from the Salzburg Festival. It`s much better with Anda bettering his own famous Elvira Madigan version. Still the Hess recording has its own merits and deserves a good hearing."
