Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | López Bellido

Klaus Mäkelä returns to Cleveland with a recent piece by Jimmy López Bellido, prefacing a pair of English works that feature Sol Gabetta, Thomas Hampson and The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus. 

The US premiere of Jimmy López Bellido's Ephemerae, a Philadelphia Orchestra co-commission, leads the listener by the nose through a world of olfactory sensations.

Spanning over a hundred years, this highly charged, sensuous programme of López Bellido, Ravel and Scriabin proved that composers’ fascination with orchestral colours has not faded.

Wang's playing of Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini is a highlight of Prom 27; Mäkelä misses the bull’s eye on Belshazzar's Feast.

Klaus Mäkelä's transparent, tragic Tchaikovsky is the highlight of his auspicious debut with the NY Phil.

It is the fusion of textures and styles coming from the pit that gives Bel Canto a memorable musical profile.

Escuchamos por vez primera en España, Aurora, de Jimmy López Bellido, con la violinista, y dedicataria, Leticia Moreno bajo la dirección de Pablo González.

Dans un chatoyant programme post-romantique allant de Strauss à López Bellido, la complicité entre la soliste, le chef et l'orchestre ont ébloui le public bruxellois.

Das Concertgebouw Orchester erzählt in einem hinreißenden Programm von Strauss, Bloch und López Bellido mythische Geschichten.

Pour ouvrir la saison 2022-23, Klaus Mäkelä a dirigé un programme original au sein duquel la création contemporaine occupait une place de choix : une audace qu'on aimerait voire reproduite !

Klaus Mäkelä gestaltet sein Debüt beim Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra mehr als souverän.
