"... a powerful, discriminating performance."
- Gramophone
"Four Stars ... Scheherazade is of course unsurpassed as an orchestral showpiece and the Berlin Philharmonic demonstrates the utmost virtuosity in all sections of the orchestra ... Michel Schwalbé is superb in the violin solos and the brass playing is rich and glowing. Without doubt this vital and sensuous version is amongst the best available of this much recorded symphonic suite ... (on the Capriccio Italien) the recording is very fine indeed and the brass comes across especially well ... overall a well filled disk ... very good performances of three orchestral favourites which will satisfy."
