Author: Michael Oliver
Munch's account of d'Indy's exuberant hike through the Cevennes is invigorating, too, the theme phrased with tender freshness at the outset, the climaxes exultantly brassy and the jovial dance-finale (the bit everyone goes home whistling afterwards) going with a swing. The Berlioz is good as well, not harmed in the slightest by a less than headlong tempo at the outset, and with wonderfully eloquent string playing. The recordings are a bit raw (adding a by no means disagreeable touch of brashness to all three works) but they still sound very well for their age.'
