Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Dvořák

Ellington’s take on Tchaikovsky, Barber’s Violin Concerto with Randall Goosby and Dvořák’s New World Symphony introduced Patrick Hahn as the RSNO’s Principal Guest Conductor. 

Semyon Bychkov and the much-lauded ensemble are joined at Carnegie Hall by Yo-Yo Ma in dazzling performances from the Czech repertoire. 

Hallelujahs all round as the duo inspire fear and delight in John Adams’ only two-piano work at London's Royal Festival Hall. 

In his Cleveland Orchestra debut, Petr Popelka skirts the warhorses: a Franck tone poem, a Dvořák symphony and Korngold’s Violin Concerto with James Ehnes.

What an enterprising programme from Domingo Hindoyan, Matthew Gee and the RPO: a sparkling orchestral piece by Suk, an energising trombone concerto by Tomasi and a much-loved symphony by Dvořák.

In a luminous recital, the cellist and pianist commemorate four decades of collaboration and pay tribute to Isaac Stern, the master violinist who saved Carnegie Hall from destruction.
