Polish-born composers Grażyna Bacewicz and Mieczysław Weinberg have not been part of the so-called “musical canon”, but in recent decades we have been fortunate to witness a revival in their music.

Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla brings Mieczysław Weinberg to the Proms, in a daring programme including Dorothy Howell and Oliver Knussen. 

In her Proms debut, Dalia Stasevska's good intentions were were not always fulfilled by the orchestra.

Das Theater Gera gedenkt mit einer eindrucksvollen Inszenierung Weinbergs Die Passagierin den Opfern des Nationalsozialismus.

On tour with Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, Mikko Franck and Sol Gabetta present an odd programme of mixed fare.

Nearly a century after his birth, Weinberg's final completed symphony is given its UK premiere by the CBSO and Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla.

Music by Mendelssohn framed Schumann’s misunderstood Violin Concerto in this sensitive concert led by Ludovic Morlot and featuring guest violinist Gidon Kremer.

Achevé en 1985 et créé à Mannheim en 2013, l'Idiot de Mieczysław Weinberg est une authentique rareté. Première reprise depuis, on est ravi qu'elle ait enfin été présentée dans des conditions musicales et vocales qui lui rendent pleine justice et contribuent à la sortir toujours un peu plus de l'oubli.

Artistry and politics intertwine in a remarkable concert at the Komische Oper Berlin.

A first performance of Weinberg for the NSO and a thoroughly fearsome Shostakovich Eighth.

Balance and transparency may have been in short supply elsewhere Friday afternoon, but not in Symphony Hall where Juanjo Mena led the Boston Symphony in a bracing program of works by Prokofiev, Weinberg and Tchaikovsky. The 26 year-old Prokofiev wrote the Symphony no.

Das Orchester ist der Star bei Daniel Hopes Amtsantritt als neuer Leiter des Zürcher Kammerorchesters.

In its first full staging in Russia, Miecysław Weinberg’s complex, eclectic score is sung and played with excellence; Thaddeus Strassberger's direction and staging presses all the emotional buttons.

The Jerusalem Quartet and Sir András Schiff make a great case for Weinberg at Wigmore Hall. 

Eine berückende Produktion der Oper Frankfurt bei den Wiener Festwochen im Theater an der Wien

Kopatchinskaja brachte Prokofjews wunderbare Melodien intensiv zum Leuchten, konnte aber auch gegen Ende des ersten Satzes eine Spannung aufbauen, die es mit jedem Krimi aufnahm.

Le chemin enneigé, bordé de bougies, monte à la vieille Église de Saanen de 1604. Sous son toit, le vieux bois de la balustrade, d’une chaude couleur miel, travaille, grince, gémit : l’atmosphère des concerts hivernaux à Gstaad est unique.

Radu Lupu accompagné par la Kremerata Baltica fut un bonheur d’équilibre et de musicalité. Malheureusement la soirée fut émaillée de quelques verdeurs et rudesses de la part de l’orchestre qui rendirent le tout un brin endommagé. 

David Pountney's production of Mieczysław Weinberg's opera The Passenger travels to Chicago. 

Mieczysław Weinbergs Oper Die Passagierin  erzählt eine Geschichte, die einen nicht mehr loslässt. An der Franfurter Oper ist dies zutiefst beeindruckend zu erleben.

Two worlds occupied by the same two women and presented, jarringly, as a single multi-story set. One is the pristine white deck of a 1960s ship bound for Brazil, and beneath it, where the hull might be, is the grey grim world of Auschwitz.

With musicians of this caliber, it is the soul of the music that matters not the mathematics, and Martha Argerich and Gidon Kremer were nothing if not soulmates in this Istanbul recital.

Amsterdam Sinfonietta offered a program with three Russians and a French composer, and, perhaps more interestingly, featured three works orchestrated by other composers.

Sergei Prokofiev’s Ouverture on Hebrew Themes is a 1919 work originally written for clarinet, string quartet and piano, although the composer himself orchestrated it in 1934.

The glittering white of a luxury cruise liner above, the darkened hell of the concentration camp below. Johan Engels' set for Weinberg's The Passenger, first seen at the Bregenz festival in 2010 and now at the ENO in London, is one of the most striking and effective opera sets I've ever seen, both framing the action and adding colour.

The operas of Mieczyslaw Weinberg are being pulled out of obscurity. Until the 2010 Bregenz Festival, when director David Pountney placed the composer at the centre of the three-day event and staged an ambitious production of the The Passenger, none of his seven operas had ever been heard outside of Russia.
