"[Sir Colin Davis] has always been a great Elgarian...Their Enigma, captured at the beginning of this year, is one of the most beautifully played I can recall, and certainly one of the most moving accounts of this much-recorded music...This superlative performance is coupled with an equally dazzling account, from 2005, of the Introduction and Allegro for Strings."
The Sunday Times

"Colin Davis's LSO Live recordings of the Elgar symphonies are already jewels in the label's crown, so this release brought with it high expectations. Davis's way with Elgar is always a fairly flexible one … it gives this splendid account of the Enigma Variations a real sense of a living organism. The LSO plays wonderfully."
The Daily Telegraph

"Of all the issues to mark the 150th anniversary of Elgar's birth, few will be more distinguished than these masterful accounts … you have an Enigma Variations as beautifully paced and played as any on disc and a superb Introduction & Allegro by the orchestra that premiered the work under the composer."
