Nash Ensemble nos llevó de viaje desde Granada a Cádiz, pasando por Linares en un recorrido lleno de pasión y buen hacer, donde disfrutamos de coloridos paisajes e historias de amor y desamor.

Con una pareja tan excelsa encabezando el drama, el Onegin de John Cranko resulta conmovedor;

Dame Mitsuko Uchida demonstrates why she is one of today's greatest Mozartians, while her MCO players give a virtuoso account of a work steeped in the Viennese tradition.

Albery's production allows the opera to speak for itself, although sluggish pacing in the pit detract from the musical merits of this revival. 

The latest instalment of Kings Place's “Sound Unwrapped” series delivers wonderful musicianship in both jazz and early music, but not the promised “continuous fusion of styles”.

Janine Jansen's interpretation of Sibelius' Violin Concerto is a triumph, followed by a powerful reading of Prokofiev's Sixth by Noseda – a thrilling concert to leave the heart racing.

The Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment dip into the late Romantic period to make the case for more Saint-Saëns in this rip-roaring concert under Russian conductor Maxim Emelyanychev.

Nigel Short's elite consort casts a candlelit spell at St Martin-in-the-Fields in a performance of Rachmaninov's All Night Vigil.

Edward Gardner and the LPO offer powerful Elgar and luscious Coleridge-Taylor in their “Three Britons” programme at the Royal Festival Hall.

Even despite the hiatus of the pandemic, Acosta Danza has come a long way in just eight years

Tan Dun conducts the LPO in the UK premiere of his Buddha Passion, hyped as “without precedent in the Western concert hall”. 

Elizabeth Watts is the soloist in the UK premiere of Ryan Wigglesworth's song cycle Till Dawning, and this composer also unveils his take on another's Fifth Symphony.

Steve Reich and Julia Wolfe feature in Colin Currie Quartet's Full Dark Ride at London's Kings Place, to launch the “Sound Unwrapped” extravaganza. 

A beautifully staged and intimate work but in need of a judicious edit  

With the LPO it's always good to expect the unexpected. Two contemporary pieces including a vibrant clarinet concerto pave the way for a neglected Russian masterpiece.

Throughout the entire cast, every named role was performed with the mix of enthusiasm, affection and assuredness.

“Peace Shall Defeat War” is the apposite subtitle of the finale to Boris Lyatoshynsky's Third Symphony, a work championed by Kirill Karabits in a concert featuring his fellow Ukrainian Anna Fedorova playing Rachmaninov. 

Brian Irvine and Netia Jones pull no punches in telling the story of Rosemary Kennedy, sister of JFK and Bobby, left permanently disabled by a lobotomy at the age of 23

Once decried as “dangerously introspective”, Schubert's Piano Sonata D.959 is now seen as one of his masterpieces. Eric Lu shows how he is completely on the composer's wavelength in this compelling performance.

Refined if sometimes raucous pleasures from Haydn and Mozart as the EBS continues its European tour. 

Despite the big Spanish beasts like Rodrigo and de Falla, it is a small work by contemporary Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz that packs the biggest punch in this programme.

Deane has created a production that respects the tradition of Swan Lake without unnecessary embellishment.

A lunchtime concert with principal players from the Royal Northern Sinfonia and Dinis Sousa offers a delectable treat. 

Amanda Majeski reprises her peerless Kátya, but Katarina Dalayman's flint-like characterisation as Kabanicha strikes the most sparks.

Violin dealers J & A Beare celebrate its 130th anniversary in lavish style by bringing together eight of the Cremona luthier’s exceptional instruments for a concert directed by Dutch violinist, Janine Jansen. 

Contemplation and reflection should ideally form a counterpoint to jollity and merry-making in the festive season: an object-lesson from Sir Simon Rattle and his supporting forces.

Sir Simon Rattle's “Stravinsky Journey” threads a string of miniatures to persuade the audience that there's more to Stravinsky than his three early Ballets Russes hits. 

Wayne Eagling's production for English National Ballet does not show any signs of waning popularity... audiences still want their yearly fix!

Vibrant colours and assured technique bring out the virtuosity of the Philharmonia, if lacking in emotional substance.

Britten and Shostakovich rub shoulders at Kings Place in a programme that careers into darkness with the latter's desolate Fourteenth Symphony. 

When done as well as this, a "concert staging" is not oxymoronic, but a precise term for a valuable mode of presentation.

In the existential angst stakes, Sibelius steals Mahler's thunder in an intense performance with the Philharmonia and Lahav Shani. 

Schubert knew all about existentialism long before the term was coined. It is there in his music and most poignantly so in Winterreise. Allan Clayton treads movingly in the composer's path.

Forget tutus and pointework. Sir Matthew Bourne is a great storyteller and his Sleeping Beauty is packed with a punchy narrative... and a vampiric twist. 

Sir Peter Wright’s classic Royal Ballet production returns for another festive run to enchant the young – and not so young – at Covent Garden. 

How do you conduct the same over-familiar work for the 200th time, and make it sound quite new?

The charismatic Rakhi Singh leads the Manchester Collective in fine performances of Mazzoli, Leith, Shaw and Shostakovitch.

Once in a while, a very great work gets the sort of live performance it deserves; such is the case in this concert by Jurowski and the LPO.

John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London give a masterclass in musical perfection in works by Walton, Ravel, Gershwin and Dutilleux.

The last conductor to have led such a superb account of Rachmaninov's Third Symphony was quite possibly its composer.

Forensic musicology has its limits: controversy will continue to surround any new attempt at providing a convincing conclusion to Bruckner's final symphony.

In a face-off between Gabriele Viviani's Scarpia and Malin Byström’s Tosca in this solid revival of Jonathan Kent's 2006 production, there could only be one winner

English National Opera's It’s a Wonderful Life makes for a feel-good evening of theatre, but it requires a sweet tooth.

Stepping in at short notice, Sousa led the Philharmonia in Brahms' Fourth Symphony, before which Steven Isserlis dazzled in a deeply enjoyable reading of Dvořák’s Cello Concerto.

Frederic Wake-Walker's realisation of the Hogarth-inspired opera is visually bracing and assuredly sung. 

Robert and Clara were not the only two-composer family. So were Alma and Gustav. The Nash Ensemble's latest programme highlights Beethoven and the Romantics.

A memorable evening of superb music-making at the Royal Festival Hall, illuminating two well-known Vaughan Williams scores and shining a light on a seldom performed rarity.
