"An  excellent transfer of Stokowski's extraordinary 1953 recording of his own  revision of Night on Bare  Mountain... The couplings are equally spectacular."  Gramophone
"Immaculately transferred from pristine LP originals, the sound is surprisingly wide range and effective. Thanks Cala!" Classical CD Reviews
"[...the Mussorgsky piece]...proves so effective that it sets a watermark of orchestral execution for this virtuoso tone-poem" Audiophile Audition
Stokowski's championship of Slavic repertoire was well-known, and this disc features a number of his own arrangements of it, including his spectacular version of Night on Bare Mountain which featured in Walt Disney's Fantasia.
