The Iceland Symphony Orchestra opens its season with a dazzling showpiece by Thomas Adès.

A carefully curated concert by the effervescent Icelandic pianist, Víkingur Ólafsson, of music by Mozart and his contemporaries.

The rising Icelandic piano star made his Proms debut alongside conductor Paavo Järvi and London's Philharmonia Orchestra, in a programme that seamlessly shifted between Classical, Baroque and Modern styles.

Icelandic pianist Víkingur Ólafsson makes his debut both with the conductor Paavo Järvi and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra.

The finale of the Icelandic pianist's five-concert residency in the Bergen Philharmonic's Wintermezzo festival saw him play Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor... this time in the same hall as the orchestra!

John Adams dirigiert das Radio Filharmonisch Orkest in einem interessanten Programm, das jedoch nicht immer überzeugen kann.

Qui de mieux que John Adams pour diriger un concert américain ? L'Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France s'est associé au fameux compositeur pour un concert prometteur mais finalement frustrant, notamment dans la création du jour.

Hugo Ticciati and Víkingur Ólafsson explore notions of time, but a lesson in mindful performance comes from the gravity-defying Sanddorn Balance act.
