Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Fidelio, Op.72: Ouvertüre

Das WDR Sinfonieorchester führt die Reihe „Musik im Dialog“ mit Herzog Blaubarts Burg und einem Vortrag von Ferdinand von Schirach fort.

Selbst in den technisch-räumlichen Gegebenheiten der Beethovenhalle erlebten die Zuhörer ein Festival- und Zyklusfinale wie man es sich nur wünschen kann.

Der Youngster Jan Lisiecki läuft den alten Hasen der Warschauer Philharmoniker in Essen den Rang ab. 

Jason Lai returns to Hong Kong with French oboist Gabriel Pidoux in an emotionally fulfilling rendition of Vaughan Williams' Oboe Concerto. 

An all-day Beethoven experience European style with both highs and lows: much diversity revealed and exploited but of variable quality.

Simone Lamsma gave an intense, exciting and witty performance of Bartók's love song with the Belgrade Philharmonic and Daniel Raiskin, plus Beethoven, Weber and Strauss.

Vassily Sinaisky returns to Birmingham, partnered by a Macedonian pianist.

Callum Smart, playing Bruch’s Violin Concerto no. 1 in G minor, and conductor Matthew Halls made very successful debuts with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at a packed Cheltenham Town Hall.

After an exhausting multiple rehearsal week the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra kicked off its current season with a rousing reading of Beethoven’s Fidelio Overture.

An austere yet emphatic Fidelio, focussed and detailed Schoenberg, followed by an affecting, powerfullly bleak Shostakovich Eighth Symphony from Jusrowski & the LPO.

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.

Beethoven gets the mock-period treatment from Michael Sanderling and the Dresden Philharmonic in the first of three concerts at Cadogan Hall.

After a slightly disjoined start, the RPO delivered an ultimately satisfying concert with distinctive and involing intepretations of two Romantic warhorses. 

The RSNO shine in Strauss' and Bartók's contrasting responses to war, dislocation and loss, Metamorphosen and the Concerto for Orchestra.

The Bristol Classical Players and conductor Tom Gauterin normally focus their concerts around a series of works from a particular era or composer, but this time they did something a little different. We heard the rarely performed Piano Concerto in G minor by Dvořák, sandwiched between Beethoven’s Fidelio overture and his Fifth Symphony.

There are times when a concert, even those featuring famous and oft-heard works, can be utterly rejuvenating.Tonight’s performance presented a pair of grand minor-key works by two emotional heavyweights of the 19th century.

You can’t accuse Vladimir Jurowski of lacking ambition. This LPO concert of his, featuring artfully sequenced works by Beethoven, Schoenberg and Nono, was dedicated “to all the people in the world who are still suffering injustice”.
