This review is from: Mozart Horn Concertos (Audio CD)

You can tell he has an absolutely beautiful tone! There are many recordings of the four Mozart Concertos, but I would have to say James Sommerville's is one of my favorites! It's a "MUST have" along with Brain and Tuckwells recordings of the concertos. Mr. Sommerville plays the concertos like a breeze. But I must emphasize on his tone, because that really stood out to me, it's truly fantastic...and if you know me, my ears are picky about tone on the horn. It would be awesome to see him in concert. Anywhoo, you should buy the recording, I can't stress how good it is.

James Somerville's performance is very smooth and pleasant to listen to. He provides virtuoso performances on each and every track that just draw you into the music. The CBC Vancouver Orchestra provides a very accomplished accompaniment to Mr. Somerville's solos. The engineering and production on the CD are also good quality so the sound is powerful and robust--not tinny as I've heard on too many Classical recordings.
