Reviews & Editorial
"Serebrier brings energy, commitment and belief to every bar. Surely the best Glazunov cycle yet."
Classic FM Magazine
"His approach is nothing if not full-blooded, and he [Serebrier] draws some superb playing from the RSNO, especially in Symphony No.1 and the scherzo of No.3...I would say that Serebrier's is now the benchmark performance."
BBC Music Magazine
"With this sublime collection of four symphonies, conductor José Serebrier finally completes his much awaited Glazunov cycle which is surely one of the most important events of recent times in the musical world...
"The recordings are very clear and there is a sense of hallowed beauty in proceedings as Serebrier coaxes his players into action. If you have been one of those who has been waiting for a long time for the completion of this cycle then it is obvious that you will want this fine collection without delay."
ClassicalNet
"Make no mistake - this is great conducting and deeply impressive orchestral playing. It is difficult to imagine this music being better done – not only Issue of the Month but also one of the Recordings of the Decade"
