Das Konzert im Pierre Boulez Saal entwickelte sich zu einem Dialog wie ein Gespräch unter Freunden.

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

An absorbing programme of violin and piano duos from Patricia Kopatchinskaja and Polina Leschenko saw captivating performances of Webern, Bartók and Ravel with an interesting edge in Schumann.

Nikolaj Znaider und Piotr Anderszewski gastieren mit einem facettenreichen Duorecital im Kammermusiksaal der Elbphilharmonie.

This Winchester Chamber Music Festival programme made a stab at being eclectic, with two sets of early 20th century Webern miniatures to start. Yet the meat was in two substantial Romantic works by Schumann and Brahms. 

The Soundings concert series opened its season Tuesday evening at the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, with violinist Midori and pianist Özgür Aydin. Although the series typically focuses more on contemporary music, Midori offered the program she’s been touring with in celebration of the 30th anniversary of her debut, and it did not disappoint.

Violinist Alda Dizdari may just have taken a while to settle in to the performance, but the opening Debussy Sonata did not come across particularly well. Piano and violin didn’t quite lock in together and the Debussy ‘wash’ of sound, akin to an impressionist watercolour, was not apparent – the tone was harsh and rhythms angular.
