La OSPA nos sumergió en un vivo concierto a través de tres apasionadas obras de Mussorgsky, Piazzolla y Tchaikovsky.

The Belgrade Philharmonic gave Ana Sokolovic's Concerto for Orchestra a fine performance; two soloists from the orchestra entertained in a Stamitz concerto, and a gripping Brahms First Symphony concluded a splendid concert.

A major work going well beyond tango by Astor Piazzolla and a fresh introduction to African-American composer Florence Price highlight a concert that tries a bit too hard to please

A four-year sojourn is brought to a brilliant finish by Orquestra de Cadaqués.

In Autumn the cicadas are out in force at Wigmore Hall...

When a hurricane floods your symphony hall, and you have to scrap and replace programs according to new venues and limited rehearsal time – all with an aim to soothe a city in distress – what do you play?

Italy viewed through the eyes of a Russian tourist, of visiting Europeans reading Dante and through the eyes of South American emigrées, with added tango. 

Young Russian violinist Yury Revich gets a rapturous response from Leipzigers.

The Manchester Camerata directed by Giovanni Guzzo gave moving, entertaining and expressive pieces by Pärt, Mozart, Piazzolla and Britten with Guzzo and pianist Gabriela Montero as soloists.

In Amsterdam, Joshua Bell led his Academy of St Martin in the Fields on an adventurous, crowd-pleasing journey that demonstrated his ensemble’s versatility.

The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra surprises by breaking conventions in their 2014 Kennismakingsconcert ('meeting concert'), combining Vivaldi's and Piazzolla's Four Seasons.

Eight seasons were performed at St George’s Bristol by the Oxford Philomusica: in this different approach to Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, they added Ástor Piazzolla’s The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires. The concept behind the concert was to combine old and new worlds of classical music, comparing works from the 18th and 20th centuries based on similar structures, and four sonnets depicting the seasons.

It is bold for an Asian orchestra to tackle a programme of works with a strong and vibrant ethnic character. We got far more than we bargained for in the concert titled “Bravo! Piazzolla” by the Hong Kong Philharmonic on Friday, not only in terms of the generous encores but more so of the quality of performance.
