En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Yefim Bronfman

No resulta exagerado calificar al tecladista ruso como veterano, siempre en aras de la justa aplicación de un término que, en su polisemia, remite a varios de los atributos que Bronfman viene esculpiendo con una dedicación no menor que su éxito desde hace más de 40 años.

Sorprendió la excitación que se manifestó en el transcurso del recorrido y Bronfman, en un estado de forma asombroso, brindó portentosas muestras de su dote al teclado. 

Si en anteriores reseñas nos hemos hecho eco de ilustres visitas, hoy no podemos menos que celebrar la presencia de la Gewandhausorchester de Leipzig. Con Andris Nelsons al frente, ofrecieron el Concierto Emperador en las manos de Yefim Bronfman y la Cuarta sinfonía de Brahms.

Bronfman attacked the concerto with alacrity and a capacity to draw sound from the piano which was breathtaking.

In a time when death and mourning lack any public or communal aspect, where the funeral procession has ceased to exist save for royalty and the occasional head of state, what relevance does the traditional dirge have?

Jaap van Zweden and Hong Kong Phil's Der Rosenkavalier Suite full of swagger, sarcasm and humour

It is the rare concert for which one can say that each half of the program would have sufficed as the sole offering of the night; when each half contains personality, wisdom, a sense of history, life-risking music-making, and attractive and important repertoire.

Tonight’s The Rest is Noise concert, featuring the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, Michael Tilson Thomas and Yefim Bronfman, took on one of 20th-century music’s biggest questions. Anyone who has been following this huge concert series – or indeed the accompanying BBC documentary The Sound and the Fury – will no doubt be acquainted by now with Arnold Schoenberg and his angry, radical ways.

On Sunday night Shriver Hall was packed with Baltimore opera fans who had gathered to enjoy a solo recital of the internationally acclaimed opera “anti-diva” Magdalena Kožená. True to her reputation, this Czech mezzo-soprano came on stage dressed in a casual black gown, which (ignoring the dress change tradition established by her stage colleagues) she chose to wear all night long.

Capping off their two-weekend Mozart Festival, the Dallas Symphony played three minor-key masterworks this weekend, plus one major-key selection. Music in minor keys is the exception to the Mozartian rule – only two each of the 27 piano concerti and 41 symphonies are in minor.

Johannes Brahms was a Romantic with a capital R. Born six years after Beethoven’s death, Brahms was so determined to continue the composer’s colossal musical legacy that he labored over his First Symphony (often nicknamed “Beethoven’s Tenth”) for over a decade. He spent nearly as much time laboring over his Piano Concerto no.

The San Francisco Symphony recently returned from an exhausting six-city, ten-concert tour of Asia and now enter the month of December with a selection of seasonal, festive performances.

One can be forgiven for expecting that a Sunday afternoon concert should consist of light classics to which one doesn’t need to apply too much mental exertion. The works in yesterday afternoon’s performance by the MET Orchestra under music director Fabio Luisi were anything but light. In fact, I suspect that the electrifying energy of the concert would be enough to keep me going for a long time.

While the connections between Brahms’ Piano Concerto no. 2 and Lutosławski’s Symphony no. 3 may appear tenuous at first, there is a beautiful symmetry here. In 1878, Brahms had finally started writing symphonies, and though the first was long in gestation the second and third followed fluidly.
