Notes and Editorial Reviews
"Gardiner's sophisticated Mozart symphonies offers all the usual qualities of period instruments: the immediacy of gut strings and reduced-vibrato articulation, rustic sounding woodwind, precariously exciting natural brass and the unmistakable 'thwack' of hard sticks on the timpani...The typically elegant pointing of the second subject in the first movement of No. 29 is a delight. The central movements of No. 33 could be caressed a little more but the finale, here so redolent of Rossini, is sheer foot-tapping magic."
-- David Wilkins, BBC Magazine

Pressestimmen
M. Elste in FonoForum 7 / 86:
"Was die eigentlichen dirigentischen Qualitäten angeht, so sind beide Sinfonien in jedem Takt von Gardiners ausgeprägtem Stil gezeichnet. Da ist die kurze, bewunderswert präzise, aber auch etwas agressive Artikulation, die sich den schnellen Tempi unterordnen muß. Die Mittelstimmen sind ungemein präsent durchgefeilt, nichts ist Nebensache, alles wirbelt in Hochspannung."
