The #2 OP43, most emotionally evocative

YIP Alex | 12/17/1998

(4 out of 5 stars)

"The transitions in the #2 Op. 43 are managed with distinctness and clarity and yet their subtlety is maintained. This is an exquisite recording."

Outstanding performance and recording

(5 out of 5 stars)

"These are two of my favourite Sibelius symphonies and both received outstanding performances and recordings. Strongly recommended."
