"Honeck, like Carlo Maria Giulini, began his career as a viola player, which explains why both conduct a Seventh whose defining string sound comes, as it should, from the second violins, violas and cellos. The Pittsburgh players, antiphonally spaced, are superb ... 'Resurrexit', an orchestral meditation on the Easter story painted in Middle Eastern colours, was commissioned for Honeck's 60th birthday in 2018 ... The orchestra play the piece superbly, as I imagine only they can".
