"Szeryng's recording got a mixed first review on The Gramophone, but - in my humble opinion - the critic simply did not understand Szeryng's approach. For me, his game is filled with a profound sense of structure and a penetrating imagination. Even if you have another highly esteemed recording, there are so many successful touches and momentary insights in Szeryng's entire cycle that he stands out as one of the most majestic performances of the highest individuality ever recorded, "
