***** (Exceptional Album)

Mirko Schipilliti - Musica magazine (Italy) - May 2018

Performance ***** Recording ****

"... Tianwa Yang is a remarkable player with a scintillating technique, interpretive sensitivity and soaring tonal purity. It's ideal for Saint-Saëns, whose violin writing was greatly influenced by Sarasate ..."

Julian Haylock - BBC Music magazine - Christmas 2017

"Here is another winning addition to the Saint-Saëns series Marc Soustrot is conducting for Naxos... The five less familiar pieces that join them on this disc also shine, partly because of the stylish pacing and playing of Soustrot and his orchestra, but also thanks to the intelligent and sweet-tones performances of violinist Tianwa Yang..." ****

Erica Jeal - The Guardian - 1 December 2017

“Yang plays exceptionally well, a demanding programme, where, for the most part, Saint-Saëns winningly combines virtuoso display, with some exceptional melodies. Particularly true of the Havanaise and the Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso. The veteran French conductor Marc Soustrot is an ideal partner in this venture. Sweden’s Malmö Symphony Orchestra, where he has been principal conductor for some years now, accompany attentively.
