Notes & Reviews:

"Yes, Mr. Kunzel does pour on the juice; but why would anyone want to hear a Dohnanyi performance of the Respighi or a Szell of the Debussy? These are all pieces that need a ripe and hearty treatment and no pussy-footing around. The program works well, and the sound is fantastic. I'm sure you will enjoy it." - Vroon, ARG
