Awards and reviews

Mackerras conducts a loving, well-contoured reading with what were then his Welsh National forces. Above all, Sir Charles is aware of the sheer beauty of the composer's orchestral writing… The recording is excellent, as are the accompanying notes. If you want the piece in the vernacular this version will give pleasure.

The recording is sung in English, which is preferable to the Russian-on-autopilot approach that has marred many versions of the work
