"The Camerata players, especially the fine clarinetist Hein Wiedijk, gave a warm, glowing performance of this mellow, often intricate music."

New York TimesAnthony Tommasini

"The Library of Congress series brought Camerata RCO, whose members are players in Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw, a fixture on shortlists of the world’s greatest orchestras.... This was a satisfying evening of sophisticated, expressive music making with a precision ensemble as snug as the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle."

Washington Post

"Magical stuff – brilliantly played, and impeccably recorded. One of the best Mahler recordings in years."

Arts Desk

"Thrilling, amalgam of simplicity and expression."
