Dudamel erreichte in seiner Interpretation ein rundes, harmonisches, "natürliches" Klangbild: er achtete auf musikalischen Fluss, nahm das Publikum mit dieser Musik gefangen. Der Schluss geriet zu einer hinreißenden, ergreifenden Apotheose der Liebe.

Gustavo Dudamel heizte dem Publikum in Essen mit dem Símon Bolívar Symphonieorchester ein.

Between gigs at Wembley as Coldplay’s support act, the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra brings its distinctive brand of infectious music-making to the Southbank.

La Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar de Venezuela ofreció una versión de la Tercera sinfonía de Mahler, con Gustavo Dudamel a la batuta, algo desigual, pero en la que no faltó virtuosismo y energía.

An evening of audience roars begins as soon as Gustavo Dudamel first mounts the podium at the Barbican.

Maestro Gustavo Dudamel and the musicians of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra are undoubtedly the most prominent ambassadors for Venezuelan orchestral music today, and they hit the stage on Friday for their second night at Carnegie Hall’s opening weekend.

Il ne faut pas avoir peur du vide pour se lancer ainsi, à corps perdu, dans l’arène géante du Royal Albert Hall, surtout avec une première partie, Desenne et Villa-Lobos, si peu consistante. Sauvés par Ravel… La musique, Dudamel la fait à l’esbroufe, poussant le Simon Bolivar à ses limites de puissance et de vélocité.

A case of “seeing double” in Salzburg, as Cecilia Bartoli brings West Side Story to her Whitsun Festival. 

An ambitious undertaking to perform both Brahms' piano concertos on the same programme, but not one that succeeded in this performance at the Royal Festival Hall.

Massive forces played with great precision and exquisite sound and balance in Messiaen's complex Turangalîla-symphonie, under the baton of Dudamel.

Rising superstar Gustavo Dudamel led mixed interpretations of two of Stravinky's best-loved scores; consistently good orchestral playing was augmented by occasional glimpses of brilliance.

Gustavo Dudamel conducts the Los Angeles Philharmonic and Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra in an "Immortal Beethoven" performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.

A criticism of El Sistema orchestras has been that they have only one setting: "beefy". The first half here provided evidence to the contrary.

Collective understanding reached its apogee in the final movement. So deep was Dudamel's introspection that he had quite possibly forgotten that the audience was there.

Gustavo Dudamel y la Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar de Venezuela dictaron cátedra por tesón, genialidad, disciplina y comportamiento artístico con el ciclo de las sinfonías de Beethoven.

El primer concierto de un ciclo hecho por primera vez de manera cronológica en el país, y maratónicamente, con cinco conciertos en días consecutivos, desbordó en genialidad, en belleza, en destreza y en humanidad bondadosa.

El sonido monumental y la contundencia en el carácter que el maestro Gustavo Dudamel imprime en las orquestas que dirige es una firma; una revolución en un mundo orquestal en general con tendencia a lo tradicional.

Simon Rattle le disait il y a bien longtemps déjà : « Dudamel est ce qui est arrivé de mieux au monde classique depuis très longtemps ». Un concert hors normes par l'Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar de Venezuela et son charismatique chef.

Gustavo Dudamel and the Simón Bolívar Symphony bring Beethoven and Wagner to Madrid and fill the hall with vitality.

Even without their trademark blue and yellow tracksuits,, the young (and now not so young) players of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra can still generate a certain frisson.

Maestro Gustavo Dudamel and the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela completed a four-day residency at Cal Performances with two concerts that rocked, rolled, and astounded audiences in Berkeley’s Zellerbach Hall.

Three separate standing ovations answered the first concert of the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra's London residency, in which they played Beethoven and Britten with all of their trademark joie de vivre and panache.

Can a concert have ever been so eagerly anticipated? In 2006 Richard Holloway, then chair of the Scottish Arts Council, went on a fact-finding visit to Venezuela to look at El Sistema, where intensive classical music tuition in schools and the formation of orchestras has developed a successful track record of transforming attitudes in desperately poor and violent communities.

There are few greater disappointments than an event which fails to live up to high expectations: film adaptations of favourite books and the January sales seem like obvious examples of events which are often perfectly pleasing but drowned under hype.
