Remarks:

"The other departure has been done on some previous recordings of the Concerti - assigned just a single instrument to a part rather than having the ripieno be most of the chamber orchestra. Surprisingly, I found this produced not that much of a different sound as, say, the Britten chamber orchestra version. It did, however, increase the clarity of the lines of interweaving counterpoint and made the dialogs between the individual instruments more prominent. With the great clarity and spread of the hi-res surround recording, the effect is extremely rich and full - not in the least ascetically thinned as one might fear. Egarr's return to the original chamber conception of the Concertos is an unqualified success!" -Audiophile Audition (audaud.com)
