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

Anu Komsi stars in Brahms at the Barbican; Sakari Oramo revives memorial tributes by Rautavaara and Sallinen. 

Avec clarté et sensibilité, l'Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France et Sakari Oramo ont livré un beau programme dont le sommet est resté les pièces de la compositrice finlandaise avec Anu Komsi.

Sakari Oramo leads the Czech Philharmonic in a powerful German Requiem with vocal support from the Prague Philharmonic Choir, Anu Komsi and Christian Senn.

The Barbican and BBC welcome the Finn to the exclusive pantheon of the order of “Total Immersion” – a full day devoted to the music of a single living composer. 

Sakari Oramo, Anu Komsi and Ólafur Darri Ólafsson take a deep dive into the world of Sibelius' tone poems in two concerts with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

A nine-day celebration that could be also seen as a mini relaunch for the controversial building 

In this second of Oramo's farewell concerts, the RSPO play Sibelius' Third and Fourth Symphonies; Anu Komsi sings a compelling Luonnotar.

Das britische Orchester beweist, wie uns zeitgenössische Kompositionen vor allem in Verbindung mit zum Nachdenken anregenden Texten inspirieren können.

What to put with Beethoven's greatest statement on the universality of the human spirit? The BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, Sakari Oramo, Neil Ferris and Andreas Haefliger make a case for renewal.

With its vertiginous vocal leaps and broad intervals, Komsi's pure pitch-perfect soprano soared like the eldrich keening of a sea bird. The spareness and incantatory intensity were heightened by the BBCSO and Oramo.

Vendredi dernier, l’Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France nous donnait à entendre un audacieux portrait des temps contemporains, entre souffrance, galanterie et chant de vie.  

A talented ensemble proves pays testament to the heritage, vitality and continuing inventiveness of Finnish folk music. 

The origins of chamber music lie in a wish for music that could fit within a small room. On display at the New York Philharmonic last Friday were recent contributions that wished for the opposite.

Im Nachhinein dominieren in diesem Baseler Stockhausen-Revival die Impressionen des dritten Aktes und damit die Erinnerung an eine reichhaltige Komposition, ausgezeichnete Sänger und ebensolche Instrumentalisten.

The Finnish forests, the creation of the world and a mythical hero were vividly brought to life in the opening concert of the 15th Sibelius Festival in Lahti

Au programme du Prom 15 : la première britannique d'Iris dévoilée, pièce de Qigang Chen, précédée par la Symphonie n°1 de Prokofiev et suivie par la Symphonie n°2 de Rachmaninov. De la très belle musique, délectable malgré une interprétation du BBC NOW manquant parfois d'ardeur.

If there were a gold medal for programming at Musikfest Berlin, it would go to last night’s concert with the RIAS Chamber Choir, Ensemble musikFabrik, and a host of other musicians, gathered under the baton of James Wood.
