La magia envolvió un recital en el que Sondra Radvanovsky fusionó su monumental talento vocal con sus experiencias vitales en interpretaciones sinceramente profundas.

Never mind the piano concerto marathons, 2023 will not see a finer anniversary tribute to Rachmaninov than this song recital.

Poise, control, stillness. Within two minutes of her Wigmore Hall debut, the qualities that make Elīna Garanča a consummate Lieder recitalist were evident.

Elina Garanča was alluring in a lovely recital of Brahms, Duparc and Rachmaninov with pianist Malcolm Martineau. 

At the cloakroom, it was already clear that this evening was not going to be standard fare at the Staatsoper. Russian was in the air, and Russians had bought their fair share of the tickets to this completely sold out event: wearing extravagant gowns, sporting elegant hairstyles and reserving bottles of champagne for the interval. There was plenty of Russian fare on the programme too.

Across town the Proms were sounding their final hurrah for another year, but Wigmore Hall opened their 2012/13 season with an altogether more serious repertoire of Rachmaninov and Shostakovich songs.
