En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Film music from Schindler's List

A dashing, captivating concert, lacking only a few mood-changers to stimulate the audience’s eager receptors.

The Vancouver Symphony performs with penetrating insight from Itzhak Perlman.

Virtuosic playing from the LSO under the decisive leadership of Marin Alsop enlivened the divergent soundscapes of Bartók, Korngold and Rachmaninov. 

The Uzunstein Chamber Orchestra's tribute to the ANZAC's combines the intriguing and diappointing in equal measure.

The BSO seamlessly jumped between all-out dramatic terror, soppy love and adventure in an eclectic mix of 21 pieces of "heroic" film and video game music from the past five decades. 

The Winspear Opera House in Dallas hosted violinist Itzhak Perlman for the penultimate performance on this season’s recital series, performing sonatas by Beethoven, Franck and Debussy. 

For whatever reason, performers have always seemed to fear the fourth wall. They are content to let their music speak for itself, and any attempt to address the audience verbally is often considered lowbrow. This makes sense in some regards, as it facilitates the image of performer as master and lends artistic integrity to the music.
