As they have demonstrated time and again in the past, Yates and his Scotsmen do their very best by Arnell, bringing his scores to vivid life, and the Dutton engineering team follows suit. An essential acquistion for all lovers of the English 20th-century mainstream.
Paul A. Snook, Fanfare, May/June 2013
Sharp, snappy, vividly pictorial in its imagery Richard Arnell certainly knew how to make bracingly attractive music. Committed performances from the RSNO under Martin Yates.
