Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen

Aktuelle und ehemalige Stipendiaten zeigen den Erfolg des Internationalen Opernstudios Berlin auf.

Baritone Peter Mattei brought both musical sensitivity as well as almost Berg-ian drama to Mahler’s Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen, ably supported by Manfred Honeck and the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, in a successful livestream concert. 

The Bayerische Staatsorchester saved the best for last with its season finale, a generous programme of Strauss, Schoenberg, Stravinsky and Mahler.

Concert entièrement dédié à Mahler à la Philharmonie avec l'Orchestre de Paris et le Finlandais Jukka-Pekka Saraste, pour une Symphonie n° 6 très impressionnante mais un peu plate par moments.

Welser-Möst led The Cleveland Orchestra in Mahler’s Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen along with his own transcription for string orchestra of Beethoven’s Op.132 quartet.

The Aurora Orchestra performed and supported a teeming program that took in Norwegian/Appalachian folk music, Mahler and a world premiere.

Hugo Wolf once said “Brahms cannot exult”. He should have heard this.

The vocal items in this programme were the most successful, driven as they were by Bauer's searing interpretations.

The RCO marked the investiture of Daniele Gatti as its seventh chief conductor with a sampler programme featuring Mahler, opera, and an expansive, glittering version of Respighi’s Fountains of Rome.

Attention to delivery, effective interpretation and intelligent programming is what make the duo such a consistently beloved force in concert.

Gran primera parte de Peter Mattei con obras del joven Mahler e irregular Quinta sinfonía en la segunda, entre los hallazgos momentáneos y la neurosis 

En ce jour d’équinoxe et d’éclipse, l’ONCT proposait un concert original avec en programmation deux œuvres des compositeurs autrichiens G. Mahler et H. Rott et sur fond de tableau la thématique des « Génies méconnus ».

Christian Gerhaher and Gerold Huber make of an evening devoted to the songs of Maher an experience hard to do justice to in words.

Known as “the most European of American orchestras,” Cleveland’s stellar ensemble is usually at its most interesting when a European conductor comes to town. But this was more a case of the orchestra maintaining its standards despite, not because of, a visiting maestro. 

The Berliner Philharmoniker may be the world’s business-savviest orchestra. From the handsome program booklets printed on thick, color-rich stock (3€ instead of the customary 2€), to the Sony-sponsored Digital Concert Hall (where one can buy “tickets” to access past and present BP videos), even down to the gold trim on my ticket, this orchestra amply demonstrates its awareness of its reputation as

The pre-concert talk is a firm favourite with many RSNO regulars. Situated in what feels like an impromptu chapel near the Upper Circle Bar, this 25-minute exploration attracts a congregation which spills well beyond the hundred or so seats laid out.

This was without a doubt the best performance of Mahler's First Symphony. Norrington's humor comes through and complements his superb musicianship.The First often gets bogged down, but this performance was bright and alwaysexciting giving the instrumentalists enough room to show their skills... andwhat skills.I have no doubt that the NHK Symphony is the greatest orchestraat this time.

The Hallé orchestra’s concerts around Britain take them to a number of towns which do not normally get to hear top-quality orchestral concerts, with forthcoming performances in Kendal, Carlisle and Derby and others. The excitement and sense of occasion were therefore quite obvious as the crowds gathered for Sibelius, Mahler and Elgar in Perth Concert Hall.

Friday night's performance by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment in the Royal Festival Hall under Vladimir Jurowski got off to a slow and somewhat insecure start. Sixth in the series of concerts by the orchestra in the 2010-2011 season, sub-titled Symphonic Enlightenment, the concert opened with the Prelude to Parsifal by Wagner.

Created out of the period instrument movement, the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment (OAE) is dedicated to performing works on original instruments (or copies of them) so that audiences can hear music the way it was originally intended to be heard.
