- Penguin Guide 3 star 'Yan Pascal Tortelier's performance of the Second is also very attractive and very well recorded; but Butt's account of this work has greater freshness, and the slightly less reverberant ASV recording contributes to this. If, however, your main interest lies in the Third Symphony, this extra resonance proves no disadvantage and the Tortelieris a "best buy", both for the appeal of the performance overall and for the state-of-the-art Chandos recording'
