Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Eugene Tzikindelean

Kazuki Yamada and the CBSO give an aimless, flabby account of Elgar’s Violin Concerto, but a rambunctious reading of Walton is filled with delirious joy. 

Music by Berlioz, Walton and a recent work by Dai Fujikura are each revealed to have restlessness at their cores, leading to highly different forms of energy and lyricism.

The Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis crowned an evening for the CBSO strings and brass to shine at Symphony Hall.
