Fabio Luisi and the DNSO did not disappoint audiences in San Francisco, presenting a captivating program of Beethoven, Strauss and Nielsen.

The ever consummate conductor delivers a trio of stylistically contrasting works by Haydn, Beethoven and Nielsen with a single trait in common: obdurate perfectionism.

Concertmaster Erin Keefe delivers a stellar performance of the Brahms Violin Concerto as part of a Minnesota Orchestra program, paired with a presentation of Carl Nielsen's quirky, curious final symphony.

John Storgårds conducts Nielsen's sixth and third symphonies in Manchester's Bridgewater Hall. John Storgårds, who also curated a similar project of Sibelius symphonies this time last year, should be very proud of these short immersive bursts of creative energy.

Sakari Oramo and the BBC Symphony Orchestra find icy perfection in Sibelius last work.  

The BBC Philharmonic delivered superb performances in a fascinating programme under their Principal Guest Conductor John Storgårds, finding an unusual mix of wit and pathos at the Bridgewater Hall. The concert opened with Sibelius’s 1914 The Bard, one of the less frequently heard of the Fin’s tone poems.

Among the LSO’s many attributes is their bold and rich sound, those enormous waves of music that pin you to your seat at the very back of the Barbican Centre.
