Other info:

Continuation of the Huber series. This time an immature but vivacious 1th and a refined and personal 7th. This time a beautiful and serene ending of the slow movement of no. 7. Much lovely Swiss folklore in orchestral dress!

"So airy is some of the orchestration that we are almost into Berlioz at his most impressionistic as in Symphonie Fantastique. Set off against this a Brahmsian gravitas. The performance is excellent - infused with flammable temperament and an impressive unanimity of attack. A welcome change from Dvorák 5 and 6. Do try it!" - MusicWeb
