The average concert-goer thinks of Zoltán Kodály as a composer of choral works and the creator of a concept of music pedagogy known world-wide by his name. Yet his oeuvre is also rich in chamber works, songs and orchestral pieces; indeed, he wrote pieces for the latter apparatus throughout his career as a composer.

Press Quotes
What comes through forcefully is the characterful playing of the Hungarian Radio Symphony, which abounds in sparkling color and energy. In Háry János the Viennese Musical Clock and Intermezzo tingle with atmosphere, while The Battle and Defeat of Napoleon is arresting in its vivid imagery. Fischer plays up the score's bawdy humor, just as he emphasizes the rich folk element of both Summer Evening and Peacock Variations, this last providing the orchestra many opportunities for virtuoso display. (...). Highly recommended!
