"Jurowski is certainly a reliable guide in the Alpensinfonie: no-nonsense, level-headed, occasionally almost stoic. There are many fine things that come as a result, with a remarkable level of detail to be heard in Strauss's multi-stranded score - executed with remarkable accuracy by the orchestra ... Jurowski knows the score Frau ohne Schatten well (he's conducted it several times in the theatre) and he draws outstanding playing from the orchestra"
