French plus one: the Dallas Symphony in music of Fauré, Mozart, and Ravel

Fabio Luisi and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra continue their European tour, dropping anchor in Hamburg for Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony and a John Williams concerto written for the star German violinist. 

Zehn Jahre liegt die letzte Europa-Tournee des texanischen Orchesters zurück. In Frankfurt begeistern sie mit einem vielfältigen Programm unterstützt von der Stargeigerin Anne-Sophie Mutter

Jukka-Pekka Saraste conducts the Dallas Symphony in a Sibelius tone poem and a Shostakovich symphony, both works of great tragedy.

Two minor key works, performed before a – limited – live audience in Dallas, and streamed online. 

With an artistic director forced to cancel in the middle of a weekend of concerts, duty called on his assistant conductor - and she clearly had done her homework.

Dallas Symphony Orchestra, led by Jaap van Zweden and featuring baritone Matthias Goerne, performed music by Britten, Mahler, and Brahms, in a concert where not enough was ultimately said, despite a strong return from Goerne.
