"I cannot imagine any music lover failing to enjoy these delightful works in such excellent performances ... highly recommendable ..."
- Fanfare
"The performance is excellent, with Storgårds and the Helsinki Philharmonic offering a rhythmically zesty and bold account ... these are as fine or better than the competition and the engineering is also excellent: clear, well-balanced and tactile."
- ClassicsToday.com
"I enjoyed this very much indeed and I’m very glad that at long last I’ve become acquainted with the music of Leevi Madetoja ... the orchestral playing is very good indeed ... I’ve always been impressed with the natural clarity and truthful balance of (Ondine) recordings and this is no exception."
- MusicWeb International

The orchestra presents two of Madetoja's symphonies here, including his masterpiece Symphony No. 3.
