“This is proving to be a searchlight among Mahler cycles...It isn't the spectacle of power of Nott's Mahler that singles him out...but rather an intimate and highly idiomatic understanding of the style and sensibility of the music that sets him apart...Nott is scrupulous about [details] but, far more important, he knows why they are there.” Gramophone Magazine, October 2011
