(5 out of 5 stars)
"Kraus: Funeral Music For Gustav III~ Thomas Lander is a work so laden with emotions of the composer that one verily feels that one can touch it. The pain, anger, sorrow and agony are so apparent that it is heart wrenching to listen to it. The production value is top notch and the sound is crisp. Musica Sveciae have done a splendid job on the production and the book-let is quite a work of art. The liner notes are nice and the essays inside are very well written indeed. The cover painting is astounding and captures the king at his zenith of power. This is a recording not be missed and I give it 5 well deserved stars."
