New music, old friends and supercharged Strauss from the Estonian Festival Orchestra.

Yoel Levi and Pinchas Zukerman perform Bruch's gorgeous Violin Concerto with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.

Janáček's The Fiddler’s Child and Mozart's 39th Symphony complete a varied program under Michael Stern.

Assured and mostly rewarding performances from the RPO in standard fare that underlined Bruch’s nobility, Elgar’s masterly orchestration and the originality of Sibelius. 

Pinchas Zukerman never quite gets to grips with Elgar's concerto, and the Berlin Philharmonic take a while to get to the heart of Tchaikovsky's Fifth. 

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, its Music Director Charles Dutoit, Principal Guest Conductor Pinchas Zukerman and Martha Argerich party in style with Rossini, Schumann, Bruch and Stravinsky.

Pinchas Zukerman celebrated the 45th anniversary of his Cleveland Orchestra debut with Mozart’s “Turkish” concerto.

Despite some briliant orchestral playing and orchestral warhorses, Pinchas Zukerman's wooden conducting style made for an unmemorable evening at Cadogan Hall. 

The start of Pinchas Zukerman's Summer Music Festival struggled to find inspiration.

The conductorless  Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and violinist Pinchas Zuckerman, however, presented an evening of music loosely connected across several centuries, effectively pressing shuffle on the classical music jukebox.  

Three Russian warhorses given performances of remarkably varying quality by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.  

Great chemistry between conductor (and violinist, and violist!) Pinchas Zukerman and the CSO leads to joyful performances.

On his current Australian tour, the indefatigable Pinchas Zukerman seems to cherish playing a different programme in every venue. He appeared with his own chamber ensemble, the Zukerman Trio in Sydney, partnered with two Canadian musicians, Amanda Forsyth (cello), and Angela Cheng (piano).

Zukerman, master of the violin, viola and baton, displayed his many creative capabilities with panache this weekend with the San Diego Symphony.

A satisfying, but uninvolving, evening of familiar and well-loved Mozart symphonies. 

Pinchas Zukerman shares a category in my mind with Stevie Wonder. I recall seeing their names on so many LPs in my youth that they had been filed as being of a certain vintage. Investigation revealed both protégés to be much nearer my own age than I could have believed. In this performance of Bruch’s 1886 Violin Concerto no.

The air was thick with excitement in the Royal Festival Hall on Wednesday night. Strangers turned to talk to each other and every conversation seemed to be about Pinchas Zukerman: their first Zukerman experience, favourite recordings and how far they had travelled to see their hero.
