London Symphony Orchestra / Sir Davis Colin- Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique/Shepherds' Farewell/Romeo & Juliet (exc)
"Berlioz's greatest interpreter of modern times recorded it three times, but this most recent version is the most gripping and satisfying, deftly treading a fine line between self-revelation and self-indulgence. The volcanic outpourings of feeling are as intense as they should be, yet in the quieter moments - Davis achieves a wonderfully expressive pianissimo, in which every detail seems to convey meaning'
