Earlier he is plangent and the wind playing is notably communicative.” “This [Dvořák] is a considered but highly personal view of the symphony.” “The recording has been well realised […] well balanced and well caught by the microphone.” —Jonathan Woolf, Music Web International, November 2011 “… transparent textures, rhythms that are always animated as well as clear, an effortless handling of tempo changes and an acute sense of the bucolic character of the music [Dvořák]. Košler’s handling of the contrasting moods and speeds of the first movement is very effective, and the rest of the performance is on a similar level of excellence – the finale is particularly vibrant. The purposeful and direct account of the Strauss is an admirable coupling.” —Nigel Simeone, International Record Review, June 2012
