Recording of the Month: 'The young British conductor radically revisits Brahms' four symphonies by questioning decades of musical interpretations and rediscoveries.'

'...with this beautifully produced CD more instruments have been added, producing a disc of greater colour and variety...'

'This resonates well in the acoustics of the St. Jude-on-the-Hill London church where sonatas and instrumental songs have been recorded with the usual and proverbial care that distinguishes the small and independent Scottish record company.'

'Baritone Jacques Imbrailo and pianist Alisdair Hogarth highlight the similarities and contrasts in this delightfully nuanced recording.'

'...one of the best percussionists of our time [Kuniko] impresses with her talent and energy...Intense and formidable.'

'This, then, is a very fine Brahms symphony cycle from Robin Ticciati and the SCO...a very attractive proposition indeed.'

'Robin Ticciati and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra present a fresh take on the symphonies...Linn's pristine sound quality is a perfect complement to Ticciati's transparent readings. Highly recommended.'

CD-Tipp: 'The result is an unbelievably exciting journey through the symphonic world of this composer.'

'As well as enjoying Vox Luminis’ wonderful sound, I learn something each time I listen to them. I thoroughly recommend this disc.'
