"Pritchard's 1984 Prom performance of Belshazzar's Feast reaches out at you from the very first chord and grips until the end. Here is all the excitement and spontaneity of a live performance. However the acoustic of the Albert Hall has a disconcerting effect on the focus of the sound. The BBC Symphony Orchestra plays with great panache and immediacy (the brass and percussion are especially compelling). The combined choirs sing splendidly, with a real sense of occasion, and Stephen Roberts is a forceful soloist, bringing great clarity and character to his role.

Mackerras's eloquent and polished reading of The Wise Virgins, arranged from the music of JS Bach and including the popular `Sheep May Safely Graze', was recorded in the more sympathetic acoustic of the Barbican".
