Eine typische Jamsession der Steenbrinks durch die Jahrhunderte, deren glückliche Energie zusammen mit Luciana Mancini zum Austreiben mancher Sorgen beschwörte.

Wirkte das Ensemble der Sonatori manchmal etwas zu verschlafen, wirbelte sich Dorothee Oberlinger lustvoll durch die musikalische Nacht.

Steven Isserlis bescherte dem Tonhalle-Publikum musikalische Momente unsäglichen Glücks.

Dans le cadre imprévu du Palais des Congrès de Souillac, Félicien Brut, Lucienne Renaudin Vary et Thibaut Garcia ont enchanté le public, avant le concert plein de recueillement de Tenebrae avec La Sportelle.

El guitarrista balcánico desplegó sus dotes en las cuerdas de uno de los instrumentos más arraigados del Mediterráneo en un programa repleto de variedades.

Retour sur un dimanche au Festival de la Grange de Meslay, avec deux jeunes pianistes (Marie-Ange Nguci et Masaya Kamei) qui ont laissé une impression mitigée.

Le quatuor et le violoncelliste ont proposé une interprétation légendaire du formidable Quintette en ut de Schubert, après une incursion originale chez Boccherini.

En concierto en el que Josetxu Obregón y La Ritirata conjugaron buen gusto, rigor musical y un manifiesto placer de hacer música juntos.  

In a world of Sergey Malovs the violoncello da spalla could have been a contender.

The Rotterdam Philharmonic marked their centenary with two concerts starring mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato. A bittersweet weekend, during which they also took leave of their beloved principal conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin.

Cecilia Bartoli and Sol Gabetta show impressive camraderie in Baroque arias.

Schubert’s String Quintet was certainly a crowd-puller at this concert, as Kings Place's Cello Unwrapped series continues. 

In his early twenties, French cellist Edgar Moreau, a rising star in performing Baroque repertoire on the cello, made his Proms debut at Cadogan Hall.

Damian Woetzel puts together programs, musicians and dancers with a creative curator’s eye and gets the most out of the new combinations. This show was great.

One of the pleasures of live music-making is seeing as well as hearing: one gets a sense of a performance as a multi-layered communicative act rather than solely as a sequence of beautiful sounds. In Saturday evening’s ACO concert with the extraordinary cellist Giovanni Sollima as soloist, the visual dimension contributed more than usual to the effect of the whole. 

The Lammermuir Festival has a proven track record of experimentation; venues and works frequently surprise, and this year has seen some branching out in the format of events.Master and Commander comprised an evening of readings from the maritime novels of Patrick O’Brian, interspersed with music referenced in the books.

There’s nothing like a festival coming to your neighbourhood to highlight gaps in local knowledge. Despite having grown up 12 miles from Dunbar, I’d never spotted, far less entered, St Anne’s Episcopal Church. It is a gem of a place with a superb chamber music acoustic.
