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

Seong-Jin Cho und Giullaume Jehl zeigen einen perfekten Schostakowitsch, doch manchmal sollte man der Kühnheit der Komponisten mehr vertrauen...

Candida Thompson’s performance of Pärt’s Spiegel im Spiegel with understated beauty, immaculate phrasing and restrained emotion, steals the show.

The Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir shows poise and elegance in works by fellow Estonians Arvo Pärt and Veljo Tormis. 

Karen P. Thomas and Seattle Pro Musica offer a refreshingly original holiday concert exploring the choral music of Scandinavia and the Baltic nations.

It isn't often you hear six members of the Estonian Television Girls Choir join forces with the Holst Singers and Imogen Heap to perform a live a cappella soundtrack to a 1920s French surrealist film about a libidinous priest. But I am delighted to have seized the opportunity last night, when this bizarre setup hit the Camden Roundhouse as part of this year's genre-baiting Reverb festival.

Orchestral concerts bookended by Adès and Elgar are nothing new in Britain, but despite both composers being performed with increasing regularity in Vienna over the last few years, this event – to my knowledge – was the first to place them side by side.
