May 2007
Marin Alsop's pacing of the opening 'O Fortuna' chorus is spot on… Diction is excellent… Tenor Tom Randle… is the pick of the soloists. Soprano Claire Rutter makes worthy contributions… Conductor Alsop is a constantly energising presence. Rough edges notwithstanding, this is a lusty and in many ways extremely appealing version of Orff's popular classic.
June 2007
Marin Alsop is a sound judge of tempi and of when to push on near the end of a number to squeeze a bit more juice out of even the most routine material. The springtime round dances are delicately done and she lays on a sexy carpet of string sound for the opening numbers of the "Cour d'amours".
