“John Lanchbery’s score for La fille is one of the great ballet scores of the modern era – a creation to delight even those who do not normally care for ballet. (This recording) is of vintage Decca excellence…“Solti’s Boutique is high-powered and sounds marvellous…Put on the start of La Boutique Fantasque and leave it on till you get to the Tarantella if you really want to hear how good the sound is. This Solti performance is sheer delight, played as it is with the combination of style and gusto it needs, a most exhilarating performance” (Gramophone)
