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

A stunning work by Esa-Pekka Salonen, a dream landscape by Karol Szymanowski and a monumental tone poem by Richard Strauss recently made for a rich offering in Zurich.

The New York Philharmonic lack the 'wow' factor in Salonen, Ravel and Strauss at the Barbican.

An esoteric Nyx, an alluring Shéhérazade and a rollicking Rosenkavalier: the NYPO impress. 

The haze of the surreal, somnambulistic nightscape of Witold Lutosławski’s Les espaces du sommeil cast its strange pall over the expanse of the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s December 7 concert at Walt Disney Hall with Esa-Pekka Salonen at the podium.
