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

At the Edinburgh International Festival, Alison Balsom plays Wynton Marsalis's Trumpet Concerto, Pierre-Laurent plays Schoenberg's Piano Concerto before the RSNO plays Lutosławski's lively Concerto for Orchestra to finish.

Filmic Grażyna Bacewicz, virtuosic Saint-Saëns with Simon Trpčeski, intruiging Lutosławski and a freshly minted Ravel’s Boléro are expertly conducted by Thomas Søndergård. 

A centenary celebration of György Ligeti from Ensemble 360 in a concert of vibrant 20th-century music from Eastern Europe. 

Hilary Hahn and Brahms are the big name draws, but Seattle Symphony's program introduces a remarkable young conductor who makes a powerful impact.

In a programme of Lutosławski, Richard Strauss and Tchaikovsky conducted by Paavo Järvi, there are no weak links in the playing of the EFO and Stefan Dohr’s versatility on the horn is once again on display.

The striking set, brooding music, captivating costumes and troupe of highly-talented dancers promise a great evening, but Rambert’s mysterious dreamscape leaves audiences more confused than intrigued.
