Melbourne-born soprano Sioghan Stagg returns for a one night stand with Kristian Bezuidenhout and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra as part of their Australian tour.

The American soprano dazzles in two Mozart concert arias bookended by fine performances of a recent work by Jessie Montgomery and Brahms’ First Symphony.

With the help of soprano Fatma Said and a compelling programme, the incoming City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra chief conductor made good on his promise and past performances.

Barbara Hannigan gives a virtuoso performance of Ligeti's Mysteries of the Macabre with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra in Lucerne.

Barbara Hannigan stars both as singer and conductor with ensemble Ludwig at the Concertgebouw. This is a difficult double act and one that doesn't entirely succeed.

François-Xavier Roth conducted the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in a varied programme of Mozart, Webern and Strauss, concluding with a powerful performance of Also Sprach Zarathustra at St David’s Hall in Cardiff.It was hard to spot a linking factor between the programmed works, but they seemed to complement each other nicely.
