Leif Ove Andsnes brings out the singing line of Rachmaninov's Third Piano Concerto before vocal soloists Kristina Mkhitaryan, Dmytro Popov and Kostas Smoriginas join the London Philharmonic Choir and Orchestra for The Bells. 

Dans un programme 100% russe, le directeur musical de l'Orchestre de Paris et sa formation produisent un formidable jeu en technicolor, mais dont les teintes paraissent parfois excessivement rehaussées.

Karina Canellakis conducts the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in a programme of large scale repertoire to close the 2023 Edinburgh International Festival. 

The Isle of the Dead and The Bells make gloomy bookends to the final concert of the season, but Mihhail Gerts makes a great case for both at the National Concert Hall. 

Multi-sensory music? Scriabin's Prometheus, Poem of Fire tickles the senses in an ecstatic performance under Stanislav Kochanovsky. 

The first of four Rachmaninov anniversary concerts shared by Zurich’s two fine orchestras is an audio feast, climaxing with the choral symphony, The Bells. 

The BBC NOW gave us two hearty Russian works and celebrated the lunar landing with a world premiere of Huw Watkins' The Moon.

Nach Beethoven leuchtet Daniil Trifonov besonders bei Schumann und Prokofjew auf.

Intended to signify the contribution of Russian music to the Western canon, the Royal Choral Society gave admirable performances of two major choral works, rarely heard in Winchester Cathedral.

L’Orchestre Métropolitain, son chœur affilié et trois chanteurs solistes livraient dimanche dernier un concert intitulé « Yannick Nézet-Séguin et l’âme russe », sous la baguette du chef éponyme. Si l’on tient compte de la flamboyance du jeu, de la clarté des tableaux, du chatoiement des couleurs orchestrales, ce n’est pas l’âme russe qui a été révélée cet après-midi-là, mais bien plutôt celle du chef d’orchestre.

“Beloved Friend” is the term Tchaikovsky used to address Nadezhda in his letters, and it is the title Semyon Bychkov has given to his Tchaikovsky series, of which this concert with the BBCSO closed the Barbican leg.

During the Lucerne Easter Festival, Mariss Jansons conducted the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and Choir in three highly charged works. 

In a quirky programme featuring English, Welsh and Russian music the BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales began their new season at St David’s Hall showcasing, with mixed results, their composer-in-association Huw Watkins, Elgar and three Russian composers at different stages in their careers.

The bells of Mussorgsky, Rachmaninov and Pärt resound and reverberate in The Main Hall of the Concertgebouw.

Erratic tempi and unclear textures marr an otherwise engaging opportunity to hear a rarer Rachmaninov work alongside his evervescent Piano Concerto no. 2.

Rachmaninov's The Bells proved the highlight of Prom 43, with fabulous soloists and huge choral forces who stole the show in the third movement.

Samedi 19 juillet, Santtu-Matias Rouvali dirigeait à l’Opéra Berlioz de Montpellier un programme de musique russe interprété par l’Orchestre Philharmonique et le Chœur de Radio France, rejoints pour une séquence violon par Renaud Capuçon. Un répertoire dont l’orchestre et les chanteurs ont su mettre en valeur le lyrisme et la solennité.

Having resoundingly declared not two weeks ago that I had never seen the CBSO perform so well, I am forced to admit that the orchestra have once again outdone themselves.

From Soprano Svetla Vasseliva’s vampish allure to Gianandrea Noseda’s warrior-like conducting, Prom 22 was a quintessentially Romantic affair with Russia at its heart.
