"I've just finished listening to your version of Pictures, and it elicits a large "bravo" from this quarter. The orchestration is masterful throughout, and some sections (e.g. the opening of Ballet of Chicks) I prefer to any other I've heard. There are no weak spots in it, and I'm sure this version will be played many times again."
