“It’s altogether possible that it’s the performance [of the Symphony in A Minor] that makes the piece sound so convincing, as it’s easily the finest the work has yet received on disc. Not only does the Utah Symphony play with the same conviction and finesse it brought to its superb recent recording of the “Organ” Symphony and the little known incidental for the forgotten play La foi, but there’s also a sparkle and subtlety in its playing that will inspire slack-jawed admiration”

“an excellent reappraisal of symphonic Saint-Saëns … I hope there’ll be more”
Record Review, BBC Radio 3, May 2019

“As in their superb account of the Organ Symphony (1/19), Thierry Fischer and the Utah Symphony’s performances here are polished and graciously articulate…I’m already craving the next instalment.”
Gramophone, May 2019

‘And then there is Danse macabre, one of Saint-Saëns’s biggest hits, and rightly so, brilliantly descriptive of a graveyard at midnight and dancing skeletons, cued by fruity-toned concertmaster Madeline Adkins; as for the Symphonies, Danse is given a performance of style and commitment … enjoy!’
