Benjamin Britten

"Among the most magnetic performances of British music ever put on record."

"The merits of this ground-breaking performance is that it so arrestingly conveys Britten's intentions. We're lucky to have not only Britten's irreplaceable reading refurbished, but also his commentary suggested by the rehearsal sequences."
