The folk-friendly tradition is basically to take care of yourself and others. This is exactly what the brilliantly orchestrated Beethoven Orchestra Bonn under the direction of Rainer Hersch did on a high musical level. Ludwig van Beethoven, himself a beginner and a practitioner of musical humor, would have enjoyed his work. ‘- General Anzeiger, Germany
