'[A] splendid disc. The performances... are exemplary, giving Mackenzie's music the best possible opportunity to speak for itself' (The Times)

'Full of panache, wit and good tunes. This deserves to be one of the great orchestral records of the year' (Classic CD)

'A recording like this practically recommends itself - a feast for the ear and the soul, not to be missed under any circumstances' (American Record Guide)

Sir Alexander Campbell Mackenzie (1847-1935)
