SVENSKA DAGBLADET / ÅRETS BÄSTA 2008"Stephane Denève imponerade 2007 med sin inspelning av albert Roussels tredje symfoni och baletten Bacchus et ariane. Fängslande är även fortsättningen med den andra symfonin, kompletterad med briljanta utföranden av Pour une fête de Printemps och Suite en Fa."
(Lars Hedblad, Svenska Dagbladet)
GRAMOPHONE EDITOR'S CHOICE"Conductor Stéphane Denève is working wonders with the music of Albert Roussel, here adding the Second Symphony to his excellent recording of the Third. He lets the music do the talking, as it were, never forcing the issue or feeling that Roussel needs any special "help", and what emerges is an extremely fine work and a recording that should be played over and over again."

5 AV 6 MÖJLIGA I BETYG I SVENSKA DAGBLADETA perennial outsider in French music, Albert Roussel was the tutor of a whole generation of composers, including such diverse figures as Eric Satie and Edgard Varèse. The three works inclided here outline the transitional phase in which Roussel's mature idiom took shape. Most important of these is the Second Symphony with its densely intricate orchestration and its wide range of expression, while Pour une fête de printemps is a symphonic poem that could be thought of as preparation for the larger work. With Suite in F, Roussel arrived at his mature style; the piece is taut and economical in design, with a distinctly 'contemporary' feel.
