En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Adolphe

Andris Nelsons and the Boston Symphony bring opulent Strauss and soft-focussed Prokofiev to the BBC Proms to kick off their European tour. 

The Cincinnati May Festival pairs a deeply-felt Mozart Requiem with a new work for chorus and orchestra by Julia Adolphe.

Prefacing the Beethoven concertos, Julia Adolphe's world premiere proposed a beautifully orchestrated soundscape sounding in turn menacing and eerie.

Julia Adolphe's new violin concerto, Woven Loom, Silver Spindle built impact and structure out of the instability between the brightly spinning realm of the violin and the darker, all-encompassing framework of the orchestra. 

In Jaap van Zweden's first time conducting the New York Philharmonic since it was announced, earlier this year, that he would be succeeding Alan Gilbert as music director, the orchestra sounded more enlivened than they have in months.
