"Fine performances, direction and Channel 4 filming of Britten's underrated TV opera are blighted by the recorded balance, reducing the score to a distant soundtrack".

"Vurdering: Editor's choice" - "The new set, in Chandos's customary natural comfortable sound, becomes the first recording in any medium to do the work full musical and dramatic justice. It should also satisfy the curiosity of those who wonder why its devotees hail Wingrave as Britten's greatest completed opera".

"The sound is fine; the pictures no longer state-of-the-art. This is a solid starting point with wingrave but a less doggedly naturalistic approach could reap rewards".
