Janice Watson (soprano), Dagmar Pecková (mezzo soprano), Peter Auty (tenor) & Peter Rose (bass)

London Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir, Neeme Järvi

"Peter Rose's commanding resonance is full of warmth. Janice Watson floats with a beautiful ease...From an orchestral point of view this performance is a triumph, with flawless playing. The LPO Choir also make an excellently incisive contribution. Jarvi's adoption of flowing (and occasionally brisk) tempi helps to drive the piece on...An interpretation to savour." - Gramophone Magazine September 2012
