Works by Weber and Schumann allowed the BSO soloists the opportunity to shine in this latest video stream. 

Katherine Baker and Lucy Wakeford delighted in Mozart, Debussy and Fauré with the Northern Chamber Orchestra in a concert crowned by an undeservedly rare symphony by Haydn. 

Music by Mendelssohn framed Schumann’s misunderstood Violin Concerto in this sensitive concert led by Ludovic Morlot and featuring guest violinist Gidon Kremer.

Alina Ibragimova with the Scottish Ensemble perform exuberant early teenage Mendelssohn, deeply spiritual Pärt and Vasks, politically lethal Hartmann and utterly thrilling Bach.

A magnificent evening of lieder from Thomas Hampson with the Amsterdam Sinfonietta in crisp accompaniment.

Le pianiste chinois a proposé un Concerto n° 2 de Saint-Saëns aux allures de « Offenbach chez Disney » ; quant au directeur musical de l'Orchestre de Paris, il a montré tout son art de la direction d'orchestre.

À la tête de son Orchestre de chambre de Paris, le chef et pianiste dirige un concert 100% Mendelssohn éblouissant, qui rend justice au génie du compositeur.

Orchester und Solistin garantieren durch Expression und Artikulation für eine wunderbare Unterhaltung mit viel frischem Wind. Lediglich mit originärer Aufstellung wären noch mehr Effekte herausgekommen.
