"Rued Langgaard's ... high-Romantic, would-be transcended style was indeed at an opposite pole to Nielsen's post-classical idiom; but the contents of this superbly played recording show that he was also a compulsively prolix, wildly inconsistent composer in ways that, even on his works' own terms, far too often don't convince. Symphony No. 2, Vaarbrud, opens with nearly 20 minutes of cloned Richard Strauss ... The Sixth Symphony, Det Himmelrivende, is a set of variations on two themes, based on the Christ/Antichrist duality that was a Langgaard obsession ... Jacob Gade's Tango jalousie, its opening violin solo sparklingly played by Oramo, represents the kind of pleasure-Garden material that succeeded where Langgaard himself could not".
