“Like [Brandenburg Historica’s] other compilations, this is an excellent sounding CD, and while the oldest recording heard here is one hundred years old, it sounds fresh and new…. Much of the music will be new to most listeners, with several tunes accompanied by singing…. This outstanding CD comes with the finest inlay booklet I have ever seen. It’s large and crammed with the history of the Imperial German Navy and explanatory notes on the music. It has many excellent black-and-white photos and even some color illustrations. You could say the price is worth the booklet itself. If you’re interested in the old Imperial German Navy, whose challenge to Britain’s Royal Navy is considered one of the reasons for World War I, you will want this CD…. It is history and music worth owning.” -- RVS: Newsletter of the Robert Hoe Branch of the International Military Music Society, November 2007
