Comment. The criteria in WP:WikiProject Classical music/Guidelines is from an essay by a WikiProject and does not carry the broad support of wikipedia policy. Further, this guideline section is currently being considered for removal for WP:NPOV concerns, as well as its conflict with the policy at WP:NALBUM.4meter4 (talk) 01:30, 20 September 2019 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. note that it also fails WP:NALBUM and WP:COPYVIO. The main bulk of the article consists of a long paraphrases of a critic's review - this is certainly violation of copyright.Smerus (talk) 07:10, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:NALBUM. The article's COPYVIO issue has now been addressed, and brief review excerpts will be supplied in due course. For further coverage, see Classic CD, Issue 107-113, 1999, p. 25; Hi-Fi News & Record Review, Vol. 45, Issues 1-6, 2000, p. 101; Donald Carl Meyer and Jay D. Zorn's Critical Review Guide, 2003, p. 54.Niggle1892 (talk) 16:43, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep per criteria 1 at WP:NALBUM. I found critical reviews in two notable publications offline: BBC Music Magazine, 1996, Volume 4, Page 64 and Stereo Review, 1996, Volume 61, Page 80. The work is also critically reviewed on page 120 of Gustav Mahler's Symphonies: Critical Commentary on Recordings Since 1986 By Lewis M. Smoley, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1996 which can be viewed here at google books. One of the two reviews in Gramophone cited in the article is available for viewing online here.4meter4 (talk) 18:42, 22 September 2019 (UTC)
