“Such accomplished, high-class music-making makes the imminent follow-up with the Rhenish and Fourth Symphony en enticing prospect.” – Gramophone – UK (on CC 72958 – Symphonies nos. 1 & 2).

“de Vriendstrives for a balance between a magnificent orchestral sound and a transparent polyphony that also seeks to illuminate the complex inner life of Schumann’s orchestral sound with brisk tempi.” – Rondo – DE (on CC 72958 – Symphonies nos. 1 & 2)

“Swagger and elegance.” – BBC Record Review(on CC72958 – Symphonies nos. 1 & 2)
