"This 1969 EMI recording of the Double Concerto has claims to be regarded as one of the finest of all versions... The playing is so ripely compellingly Brahmsian and the solo timbres so richly projected. The Andante is glorious... Coupled with an arresting version Beethoven's Triple Concerto..." - The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs & DVDs, 2003/4 edition
