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

Sayaka Shoji and Salonen remain in close dialogue in a riveting performance of Shostakovich's First Violin Concerto. 

Sayaka Shoji performs Brahms' popular Violin Concerto with the Singapore Symphony and Hans Graf. 

Richly-coloured performances from Kahchun Wong and the BBCSO evoke powerful expressions of personal resolve.

Where great things take effort, truly great things happen naturally. Shoji's Brahms was the highlight of the evening.  

Who would think that a symphony concert featuring Schoenberg and Dutilleux would sell out? Well, it did – in Tokyo. Bravo to the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra for its daring programming.

On Monday, Hampstead Arts Festival hosted the long-overdue debut recital of Paris-based Japanese violinist Sayaka Shoji.
