Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Wellingtons Sieg oder die Schlacht bei Vittoria, Op.91

Mit einem Programm aus Bekanntem und seltener Gehörten zeigten die Münchner Symphoniker die vielseitigen Facetten in Beethovens Musik.

If you like your Beethoven clean, precise and streamlined, you should go hear Kent Nagano and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra perform the First and Seventh Symphonies, along with the Berg Violin Concerto and Beethoven’s Wellington’s Victory at the Maison Symphonique.

I have to confess that an event like this is not within my normal musical radar. My music reviewing and listening is predominantly serious classical, and most of it is for a specialist part of that wide repertoire. So it was a slightly brave, or foolhardy, idea to offer to review one of these musical spectaculars at my local castle.
