Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | 3 Studies from Couperin

Mit Steven Isserlis und Nicolas Hodges zeigt die Britten Sinfonia in Amsterdam ein modernes und leichtfüßiges Konzertprogramm.

Der österreichische Klarinettist Wenzel Fuchs besticht bei Mozarts Klarinettenkonzert mit seinem samtweichen Ton.

Conductor Emeritus Ludovic Morlot chose a thought provoking and unusual program for his first return to the Benaroya stage since 2019.

This was the second of Bernard Haitink’s Barbican appearances with the London Symphony Orchestra mostly drawing on the Austro-German orchestral tradition in electric and efficient perfromances. 

Since the days of Charles Munch and Serge Koussevitzky, the Boston Symphony Orchestra has always excelled in rendering the characteristics of the French musical idiom. 

Pour ce programme pour le moins éclectique, l’ONCT accueillait le très jeune mais non moins talentueux chef américain Joshua Weilerstein et la violoniste soliste lettone Baiba Skride.

When a conductor decides to lead a performance without a score, it really means two things. One is obvious: a deep and intimate familiarity with the music. Less obvious, though, is the implication of trust in the musicians of the ensemble. On Friday, young Spanish conductor Pablo Heras-Casado delivered a spectacular interpretation of Mendelssohn’s Symphony no.

The ability of musicians to take music from the past and present it in a new way gives an important sense of continuity that holds together our musical tradition, and this applies equally to performers and composers, as demonstrated this evening by Northern Sinfonia and their young guest conductor Ilan Volkov, in Hall One of The Sage Gateshead.
