Le Poème Harmonique undertakes musical time-travelling from regal Versailles to vibrant Venice, where divine harmonies collide with earthly celebrations. 

A rare outing for Lili Boulanger’s Du fond de l'abîme is the high point of Delyana Lazarova’s concert with the Hallé in Sheffield, with fine performances of Debussy and Saint-Saëns running it close.

Less often heard works for lute and organ sat alongside a violin partita and a cello suite that bordered on perfection. 

At the Proms the splendour of Saint-Saëns’ Organ Symphony provides a contrast to but also a parallel with Beethoven’s Fourth Piano Concerto in a welcome visit by The Hallé and Sir Mark Elder with Benjamin Grosvenor.

A distinctly odd pairing for an Easter concert in Perth, with the almost morbidly solemn Duruflé Requiem followed by Bach’s jubilant Easter Oratorio, both exceedingly well performed.

An afternoon of mostly enjoyable singing and music-making from the chorus and instrumentalists of La Fenice in an empty Teatro Malibran.

Jakub Hrůša with the Munich Philharmonic and Christian Schmitt extract maximum colour and effervescence from Poulenc’s Organ Concerto, whereas the conductor opts for lyrical spaciousness in Dvořák’s rarely-heard Fifth Symphony.

Haigh took full advantage of the Miller-Scott organ’s capacity for extraordinary delicacy and lower registers that can be profound yet crystal clear. La Nativité du Seigneur provided plenty of opportunity for displays of subtlety.
