The multinational Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra proves that adolescence is no barrier to maturity in profound symphonic music making.

German bombast. French joie de vivre. Russian soul-searching.

Herbert Blomstedt brought the Gustav Mahler Jugendorchester to Birmingham for the ninth of their eleven-concert, two-week Easter tour. Their magisterial account of Bruckner’s Romantic Symphony, and a fine performance of Beethoven’s Fourth Piano Concerto by Leif Ove Andsnes, earned them a vociferous reception.

El albedo de la GMJO fulgura por sí mismo, devolviendo, cuando menos, tanto como recibe. Al calor de una preparación de primer nivel, el proyecto celebra su 30 aniversario en un estado de forma óptimo.

Una notable masa sonora y destellos de intervenciones solistas que atestiguan la prometedora pasta -en realidad, los resultados ya están a la vista- que conforma actualmente la criatura del maestro Abbado.
