En vivo, Video: Buscador de críticas de conciertos de música clásica, ópera, ballet y danza | Suite for Variety Stage Orchestra

The BSO play a trio of 20th-century greats — Ravel and Shostakovich both taking inspiration from the age of jazz, while Walton’s First Symphony provides contrast. 

The Conductor Laureate brings a balletic sense to a programme of Weinberg, Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky that nodded to dancing as a theme.

Die Münchner Philharmoniker wagen sich mit Dirigent Wayne Marshall auf ungewohntes Terrain: statt großer Symphonie spielen sie Tanz und Varietémusik von Bernstein bis Künneke. Das Experiment geht auf!

Andris Nelsons returned to his Shostakovich cycle with an easy-going Sixth Symphony, followed by an exhilarating Suite for Variety Orchestra. Jean-Yves Thibaudet delighted audiences with Gershwin’s Piano Concerto in F.

An imaginative RSNO programme sandwiching fusionist Gershwin between unbelievably contrasting Shostakovich, seasoned with a little re-titling.

New Year’s concerts have never been that appealing to me: I am not a great lover of Viennese waltzes and that is what most of them consist of. But fortunately this year the Holland Symfonia had a New Years concert with a twist: Russian fireworks.
