    Editor's Choice

June 2005

…a very clean-cut, airy reading that avoids excessive sweetness and achieves a sense of drama as propulsive as a film score. Järvi's orchestra responds splendidly, with what sounds like a real Hardanger fiddle adding its tangy tone to the solos, and excellent vocal forces.
5 out of 5 stars

2011 edition

Jarvi conducts his Estonian forces in warmly expressive, full-blooded readings...In the Hall of the Mountain King is very exciting, with a wild accelerando and vigorous vocal contributions.
