"Vurdering: Ugens cd" - "Netop Alfred Hitchcock var en mester til at få de rigtige komponister til at lave musikken til sine film.Bernard Herrmann er nok den kendteste ... Dirigenten John Mauceri har gjort et stort arbejde med at vriste musikken fra filmene skånsomt fri, så den kan spilles for sig selv ... Resultatet er fantastisk vellykket og lader musikkens originalitet blomstre op i al sin pragt".

"Utöver att Psycho visserligen är representerad med en svit som Mauceri genomför med glans går de här utvalda exemplen på musik ur Alfred Hitchcocks filmer alldeles utmärkt ihop med dirigentens karaktärsdrivna angreppssätt ... Orkestern är ett förvånande växelvilligt ackompanjemang, lika flödande i Waxmans mest utsvävande romantik som storbandskarsk i Herrmanns jazzexplosioner".

"The concert recordings contain some ambient noises and quirks of balance (lots of bass tones). But the pluses are powerful: the orchestra's flair, the vivid colours and audible adrenalin. Even the most dedicated film buff should deepen their appreciation as Hitchkock's composers run the gamut".

"[Mauceri] draws a committed response from the Danich National Symphony Orchestra, which clearly enjoyed its outing into the film domain ... With excellent wide-ambience sound, this is a disc that takes its place among the best of those dedicated to Hitchcock and "his" composers".

"A terrific performance here by Klaudia Kidon with the Danish National Concert Choir. The main performing plaudits on this disc go to the Danish National Symphony Orchestra under John Mauceri ... First class sound; strongly recommended".
