Baritone Benjamin Appl and accordionist Martynas Levickis tour Europe and the USA in songs and solos demonstrating both the richness and simplicity of 19th- and 20th-century music. 

A sense of marvel and joy permeates this New Year's Day performance of Haydn's oratorio at Müpa, Budapest. 

Magnifiquement interprétée par Les Talens Lyriques et le Chœur de chambre de Namur, l'œuvre de Bach a éclipsé le Stabat Mater de Pergolesi, donné par un B'Rock Orchestra et un René Jacobs en petite forme.

Dausgaard is in his natural habitat when conducting music by his compatriot and his account of the Sinfonia espansiva proves the highlight of this Prom. 

Der Zuhörer erlebte in Köln ein Konzert mit einem formidablen Fest auf royale und kompositorische Könige von ausführend musikalischen Größen.

Malgré d'excellents Talens Lyriques, cette Passion mise en scène par Calixto Bieito s'avère plutôt convenue et ne renouvelle guère l’approche de l’œuvre.

Bach's crowning musical achievement made a disappointing return to the Philadelphia Orchestra repertoire after a 34-year absence.

Le Festival de Saint-Denis a une nouvelle fois dédié une soirée à Mahler, accueillant l'Orchestre National de Lille et Alexandre Bloch ; trois Kindertotenlieder ont précédé une très attendue Symphonie n° 5.

Sir Roger Norrington and a strong cast joined a Baroque-style London Philharmonic Orchestra in a highly accomplished Dido and Aeneas, preceded by Handel’s clean and stately Water Music.

Competent if underwhelming Handel from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Maxim Emelyanchev.

John Butt and the Dunedin Consort closed the Oslo Church Music Festival with fine performances of CPE Bach and Mozart, even though the concert didn't prove quite as innovative as advertised.

Saint-Saens' “Dance of Death” and Orff's gaudy, medieval satire framed a stunningly-realised new commission from Guy Barker, with Alison Balsom playing against type. 

Jamie Barton emerged as the star of the OAE/Marin Alsop's all-Brahms Prom, which included the first Proms performance of Brahms' Triumphlied.

I’m sure before long I’ll see a production of Daisy Pulls It Off that opens with modern day soldiers charging onto the stage waving rifles about – it seems to be the first image directors reach for these days.

Despite a relatively easy-to-follow storyline, Mozart’s Le Nozze di Figaro is an opera that is hard to pull off entirely successfully. Musically, it requires enormous vigour from both cast and orchestra; dramatically, this opera buffa demands strong acting skills in order to eke out its moments of farce.

Otto Nicolai’s very German take on Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor was a big hit in the mid-19th century but has been infrequently performed since then, largely because Verdi’s version, Falstaff, completely eclipsed it.
