Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Alain

La réunion des maîtrises de Notre-Dame de Paris et de Radio France s'annonçait prometteuse ; malgré de très beaux moments, le concert a surtout été frustrant...

La Compagnie La Tempête et son fondateur Simon-Pierre Bestion proposent un spectacle immersif, dans la musique de Bach et ses échos chez les compositeurs minimalistes.

Une soirée de feu mélânt orgue, harpe, percussions, danse et mise en lumière célébre les Lumières lyonnaises. 

Here's a winning formula to pack a concert hall for a Saturday night organ recital: book one of the country's best-known actor-managers to front the evening, invest in televisual effects, and write a good script. 

It is often said that the concert hall is the sanctuary of musicians and music lovers alike: frequent concertgoers flock to their favourite venues as regularly as Sunday service, dressed in their finest and observing the sacred rites and rituals of the classical concert.

For its last classical concert of 2011, Perth welcomed back international trumpet virtuoso Alison Balsom to St John’s Kirk, this time with David Goode on organ, for an imaginative and challenging programme of music. Balsom, awarded Best Female Artist at this year’s Classical Brit Awards, is no stranger to the town, and a sizeable crowd filled the church for this recital.

The enormous organ of the Royal Albert Hall had a busy Sunday. In the evening Prom, it was due to add even more volume to Havergal Brian’s monumental ‘Gothic’ Symphony, whilst during the afternoon it was given to the charge of Stephen Farr, one of the UK’s most compelling organ recitalists, for a solo recital.
