"This wonderful set is in effect a gathering of live material that Danacord has, for the most part, already released in a number of box-sets ... All the symphonies are represented more than once ... Other symphonic recordings are virtually as impressive, and then there are the concertos: Yehudi Menuhin is effortful but heartfelt in the Violin Concerto ... Among the most impressive - and most historically important ... are the Prelude and Theme with Variations and the Prelude and Presto for solo violin, both marvellously played by Kai Laursen ... Of the choral and vocal compositions featured ... unforgettably sung by that seraphic-sounding tenor Aksel Schiøtz ... I'd call this a set to cherish, and the transfers, whether from shellac, vinyl or tape, are excellent".
