Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Nobuyuki Tsujii

Dima Slobodeniouk returns to Cleveland for an evening of Romantic era masterworks, and pianist Nobuyuki Tsujii makes a memorable local debut.

Nobuyuki Tsujii joins the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in Tchaikovsky's ever-popular First Piano Concerto before Vasily Petrenko conducts a thrilling Shostakovich 8. 

Vasily Petrenko opens his penultimate season with RLPO in raucous style.

Nobuyuki Tsujii's debut in the Southbank's International Piano Series proves a mixed success. 

There are not many classical musicians on the international circuit who could achieve the ‘legend’ status; whose concerts would be attended by adoring fans rushing to the stage at the conclusion of the recital, who would be referred to by a nickname, suggesting an ongoing relationship and familiarity with their fans.

An excellent second half performance of Chopin's Four Ballades is preceded by an interpretation of waltzes and études that often lacks nuance of phrasing and dynamics.

Manchester favourite Nobuyuki Tsujii made a welcome return to the BBC Philharmonic with Grieg’s popular Piano Concerto, followed by a thrilling performance of Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony, conducted by Juanjo Mena. The concert began, though, with a world première. Emily Howard was commissioned by BBC Radio 3 to write her new work, Axon, for the BBC Philharmonic.

A world première, a blind pianist and a timpani showdown – Prom 6, with the BBC Philharmonic and their chief conductor Juanjo Mena, was not lacking in content. The three big works commenced with David Matthews’ A Vision of the Sea, which was commissioned by the BBC for this Prom.

On a stiflingly hot evening, a packed Colston Hall was met with an energetic conductor, Vladimir Ashkenazy, springing to the middle of the stage. Before the audience hushed, Berlioz’s Overture to Béatrice et Bénédict swirled around the room. Light-hearted, breezy and full of optimism, it made a great opening piece to the night’s programme.

It can't be often that a poet declares that the selection and setting of his words to music has turned them into better poetry.

Following his successful UK debut with the BBC Philharmonic last December in Stoke-on-Trent, the 22-year-old Japanese pianist Nobuyuki Tsujii made a widely-anticipated appearance at the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester to a sold-out crowd.
