2003 Grammy® Nominee: Best Engineered Album – Classical
Keith O. Johnson, engineer

“The recording is once again absolutely stunning, brilliant and plushy at the same time, unequaled by another label in this piece.” –Peter Aczel, THE AUDIO CRITIC

“Overall,the sound is the best I’ve ever heard from Reference Recordings. That also means that overall there’s none better that you can currrently purchase. You don’t need any more details, just trust me and run out and buy it.” –Karl Lozier, www.enjoythemusic.com

Picked by THREE reviewers of The Absolute Sound magazine for a GOLDEN EAR AWARD (best releases of 2001):

“This may be some of the best sound Keith Johnson has ever gotten out of Symphony Hall in Minneapolis, and certainly Oue’s most convincing work with the Minnesota players, who sound for all the world more like the Philadelphia than that orchestra does these days … how Johnson got that huge climax at the end of the Dances cleanly onto tape transcends engineering and goes into the realm of magic.” —Harry Pearson, TAS
