Awards and reviews

2011 edition

[the Haydn Variations] is one of the finest versions of the account on disc, strikingly fresh and enjoyable...The Debussy recordings are predictably impressive, for Monteux was one of the first interpreters of this composer....This stands high among the anthologies devoted to the work of a single conductor.
