CD Reviews

The worst of the worst.

Seigfrieds Hammer | Aurora, CO USA | 10/20/2003

(1 out of 5 stars)

"What a horrible recording from Naxos. The Czecho-Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra is really not world class. The strings are scratchy and out of tune in the high register. The woodwinds are in extreme pain and consistently out of tune. This performance is totally uninspired. No matter how cheap the price of this recording, it would be a mistake to pay hard currency for this product. One hundred cats screaching in an alley would sound more in tune. Go for a higher price recording."

Truly Awful

"This recording sounds like it was made by an amateur high school orchestra. Unfortunately Naxos orchestral recordings can be a bit of a lucky dip. Some of them are great (the Bax symphonies for example) whilst others, like this execrable cacaphony, are absolute shockers. Shostakovich would turn in his grave if he heard this one."
