Les Siècles llenan Granada de esencia francesa

Gonzalo Roldán Herencia, 24th June

François-Xavier Roth está consiguiendo con Les Siècles crear un sonido propio a partir de un culto preciosista a los matices y a la exactitud interpretativa. Su gesto dinámico y marcado encuentra en la formación un fiel reflejo que convierte cada obra en singular y sugerente.

Deslumbrante Beethoven de López-Cobos y la OSG

Pablo Sánchez Quinteiro, 12th December

Un López Cobos clarividente y en absoluta sintonía con los músicos exprimió al máximo el magnífico momento de forma de los mismos para dar vida a una Cuarta absolutamente inefable

Nick Boston, 15th November

How many of Albéric Magnard's 22 works do you know? Jean-Efflam Bavouzet and the Orsino Ensemble perform his Quintet in D minor to Wigmore Hall and it becomes the sixth star of the evening.
