Intérprete: National Symphony Orchestra Ireland

Pablo Ferrández encandila en las Variaciones rococó de Chaikovski y el director Jaime Martín ofrece una convincente y rítmica versión de la Décima sinfonía de Shostakovich.

Alexander Shelley tackles Schumann’s sprawling Das Paradies und die Peri with conviction, shaping real momentum and drama, even if balance issues and Thomas Moore’s cloying libretto sometimes distract.

Works by Boulanger and Shostakovich pay off handsomely before Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, shaped with dynamic control and visceral energy, crowns a vividly played concert.

An introduction to the latest iteration of Dublin’s foremost contemporary music festival, the first overseen by artistic director John Harris.
