"...this superb transfer dims none of [the] original impact, the sound still...arresting. So, too, the performance, which in many respects reflects Toscaninis whom Solti worked with in Vienna in 1937." (Fanfare)
"The Requiem was recorded in 1967 and was considered a sonic blockbuster when first released nearly four decades ago. Hearing it in this superb transfer dims none of that original impact, the sound still proving uncommonly arresting. So, too, the performance, which in many respects reflects Toscanini's whom Solti worked with in Vienna in 1937."
