Dans un programme 100% « Allemagne romantique », le chef québécois et l'orchestre américain délivrent une prestation de référence. Au piano, Hélène Grimaud impressionne mais ne convainc pas totalement.

Grimaud married incredible precision and rigour with moving sensitivity and ease. She led the listener clearly through the score without dropping a detail, but never gave the feeling that she was micro-managing.

Grimaud brilló en el Andante con moto, donde asistimos a la gradual fragmentación de la célula inicial, siempre bien arropada por maderas y, especialmente, una maravillosa sección de violas.
