Exciting but inconsistent playing from the EUYO at Carnegie Hall

Cameron Kelsall, 6th August

Under Iván Fischer's direction, Mahler's First Symphony is notable more for bombastic passion than subtle artistry.

Some chamber concerts, like this one at Snape Maltings, can turn a public hall into a large drawing room.

Expressive, virtuosic cello sonatas from Sheku and Isata Kanneh-Mason

Nick Boston, 28th May

An impressive evening at the Barbican from two rapidly maturing performers, unafraid to bring chamber music to audiences more familiar with standard virtuosic concerto displays.

Isata Kanneh-Mason makes a glittering Proms debut in Prokofiev

Dominic Lowe, 1st August

The BBC National Orchestra of Wales under Ryan Bancroft joined Kanneh-Mason as she tackled Prokofiev's most popular piano concerto with easy dexterity, then delivering a powerful performance of Tchaikovsky.

Peter Connors, 27th April

Isata Kanneh-Mason thrills with sparking fingerwork in Prokofiev, while the RLPO and Domingo Hindoyan are just as dazzling in Falla and Stravinsky.
