Bei ihrem philharmonischen Abonnementkonzert lieferten die Berliner Philharmoniker leider meistenteils nur Dienst nach Vorschrift ab, auch wenn dies immer noch Musizieren auf allerhöchstem Niveau ist.

Das London Symphony Orchestra unter der Leitung von François-Xavier Roth entfaltete in Wien mit Debussy, Bartók und Bruckners Romantischer Symphonie intensivste Klangfarben.

José Trigueros toma la batuta al frente de la Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia y ofrecen un resuelto concierto con Joaquín Riquelme y Marina Heredia.

Under Markus Stenz, the Philharmonia Zürich orchestra give stunning performances of works by Strauss, Bartók, and Mahler in the city’s historic opera house.

Sous le prétexte « humanisme et modernité », le dernier concert de la saison réunissait un vaste aperçu des périodes charnières de l’histoire de la musique en convoquant trois compositeurs : Beethoven, Schubert et Bartok. 

A stimulating and imaginative programme, including folksy Ligeti, with striking Salonen and intense Bartók from Lawrence Power, finished off with powerful Mahler from Gustavo Gimeno and the Philharmonia Orchestra.

A concert marked by stylish playing that brought fresh colour to Debussy, virtuosity to Bartók and energy to Bruckner.

Markus Stenz recently conducted a triple bill of thrilling works by Dieter Ammann, Béla Bartók and Robert Schumann at the Tonhalle in Zurich. The Ammann was a world premier.

Julian Rachlin steps in at the last moment and scores a win on a winning score.

Hall One of Sage Gateshead was packed for a characteristic Thomas Zehetmair programme, with Mozart, Bartók, a world première and a trademark Beethoven symphony to mark the end of his tenure as musical director of Royal Northern Sinfonia.

A piece of music written by a dying composer, left unfinished and completed by a dedicated friend from the chaotic fragments left behind. This is not just the story of Mozart’s Requiem, so familiar to many from Peter Schaeffer’s colourful retelling in Amadeus, but also of Bartók’s Viola concerto, which was imaginatively paired with the more well-known Requiem by Northern Sinfonia this evening.
