The UK premiere of Symphony No 21 in Symphony Hall last November was a watershed moment for Weinberg’s reputation. ... The appearance of this performance on a major prestige label will surely prove one of the highlights of this, his centenary year. ... In takes a performance of fierce concentration and absolute dedication to ensure this music’s hold on an audience. The Siberian SO’s pioneer recording was a brave and noble venture but it is inevitably outclassed here. ... The appearance of these two symphonies on an illustrious label is another clear pointer to Weinberg’s ‘arrival’. ... All in all, this has to be one of the most important symphonic releases of the year. 
Few discs released during the Weinberg centenary year are likely to make more waves for the composer than this. In violinist Gidon Kremer and conductor Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla, it brings together two of Weinberg’s staunchest advocates and they deliver stunning performances that can only help to bring his music to a much wider public.
