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

Between energetic Haydn and Schumann, Daniel Lozakovich brings freshness to Max Bruch's evergreen First Violin Concerto as Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen concludes a European tour at the BBC Proms.

Artist-in-Residence Bomsori Kim joins Jun Märkl for a new chapter in the history of the Residentie Orkest, The Hague. 

Violinist Joshua Bell returns to light up the 75th anniversary of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra with a fiery performance of Wieniawski's Second Violin Concerto.

Ilya Gringolts and Maxim Vengerov gave world-class performances of landmark pieces by Bach and Bartók, with a generous sprinkling of Prokofiev and Wieniawski giving extra sparkle.

After Joshua Bell's fine Wieniawski, the Philadelphia Orchestra's account of the Leningrad Symphony took this concert to a higher plane. 

A recital from one of the world's most celebrated violinists took the audience on a tour of periods in classical music. 

Dans le beau cadre de l'Orangerie du Parc de Bagatelle la pianiste Momo Kodama associée au violoniste Nicolas Dautricourt nous proposent un programme autour de Chopin, Szymanowski, Scriabine, Wieniawski, Lutoslawski, et Ravel, patchwork inégal allant du pire jusqu'au meilleur.

When is a quartet not a quartet? Answer: when the cellist breaks her wrist while surfing. Barnabas Kelemen and Katarina Kokas give a duo recital in place of Kelemen String Quartet at the City Recital Hall, Sydney.

There was something for everyone in Maxim Vengerov and Itamar Golan’s recital programme at the Barbican last night. The music of nine different nations was represented in a multicultural extravaganza of shifting horizons, moods and styles.

Tessa Lark’s recital of violin music on Wednesday evening, in the Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall, was a brilliant showcase of a promising young virtuoso, carefully planned and beautifully executed.

In terms of programming this recital at St John’s Smith Square offered something out of the ordinary. There are not that many concerts these days where the audience is faced with an item of core repertoire, followed by some semi-neglected repertoire by a mainstream composer, a work by a totally neglected composer, and then a final flurry of instrumental fireworks. Schumann’s Violin Sonata no.

It takes a special orchestra to perform standard repertoire in a completely revelatory way. Having heard Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony performed by the Australian Chamber Orchestra, I almost feel like I do not want to hear it performed in any other way again. There were several unique aspects to their performance.
