Paul Jacobs bring Rouse's Organ Concerto to DC.

A high-spirited divertissement from the New York City Ballet.

Joshua Weilerstein conducts the RLPO in music by Rouse, Prokofiev and Berlioz. 

Leonard Slatkin led the New York Philharmonic with flautist Robert Langevin in a concert featuring Copland’s El Salón México, Ravel’s Gaspard de la nuit, Boléro, and the New York Philharmonic premiere of Christopher Rouse’s Flute Concerto.

Alan Gilbert consistently pulled warm and intense playing from all sections, and the energy exchanged between him and Lisa Batiashvili was palpable.

Pinchas Zukerman shares a category in my mind with Stevie Wonder. I recall seeing their names on so many LPs in my youth that they had been filed as being of a certain vintage. Investigation revealed both protégés to be much nearer my own age than I could have believed. In this performance of Bruch’s 1886 Violin Concerto no.

On Saturday evening, a collage of sound enveloped Lincoln Center’s Avery Fisher Hall as the New York Philharmonic warmed up before swarms of buzzing concert-goers.

Dreams and anxieties, religious and otherwise, were the dominant themes at Thursday night’s New York Philharmonic performance. The concert program worked backwards in time, starting with Phantasmata by composer-in-residence Christopher Rouse (completed in 1985), followed by Ernest Bloch’s Schelomo (1916), and finishing with Brahms’ Symphony no. 1 (published in 1877).

The Royal Scottish National Orchestra, playing for the first time in Edinburgh under Peter Oundjian as Music Director Designate, put together a very solid performance of works by Rouse, Grieg and Brahms.

Le BBC Symphony Orchestra donnait un programme Beethoven/Lutoslawski au Barbican Hall. Le chef Michal Nesterowic et le pianiste Steven Osborne ont remplacé les têtes d'affiche initialement annoncées. Un changement de distribution qui n’a pas empêché la soirée d'être réussie.
