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

Is his Third Symphony Rachmaninov’s most overlooked masterpiece? Nicholas Collon and the Hallé make the case for this brooding and elusive work at Sheffield City Hall.

Is a concert ever worth more than five stars? This one – from the Hallé, Kahchun Wong and Sir Steven Hough – may well be.

Dazzling young German pianist Julius Asal and stand-in conductor Duncan Ward breathe new life into the familiar in repertoire by Grieg and Sibelius.

An evening of Vaughan Williams’ greatest hits? There’s always an appetite for that, as Andrew Manze and the Hallé prove at Sheffield City Hall. 

A rare outing for Lili Boulanger’s Du fond de l'abîme is the high point of Delyana Lazarova’s concert with the Hallé in Sheffield, with fine performances of Debussy and Saint-Saëns running it close.

The theatrical flair of flamboyant conductor Maxime Pascal and rock-steady Beethoven playing from brilliant young pianist Tom Borrow illuminate the Hallé’s concert in Sheffield. 

Too often overshadowed by its neighbours, Beethoven’s Fourth Symphony gets star billing from Bihlmaier and the Hallé in Sheffield's City Hall. 

How much emotion is too much emotion? After drily sardonic Adès and tender Shostakovich, the Hallé shows what happens when Tchaikovsky’s music is over-indulged.
