Étrange filage que celui entendu mercredi dernier à Gaveau. L’on n’a pas rendu le meilleur service à Brahms en faisant succéder son Quintette en fa mineur par Nicolas Stavy et le Quatuor Voce à une performance aussi discutable que celle de Mi Young Lee, dont les contre-sens musicaux et les agaceries n’ont pas laissé intacts Mozart, Liszt et Chopin.

Cette maîtrise parfaite de l’œuvre et la capacité, rare, à respecter parfaitement le phrasé des tableaux font de cette soirée un moment d’exception, dont on se souviendra longtemps. Un très grand chef pour un bel orchestre.

Richly imagined, superbly orchestrated and conducted by Valery Gergiev, this concert performance at the Barbican was an exciting première of Shchedrin's new opera, inspired by Leskov. 

Gidon Kremer brought the latest version of his Kremerata Baltica ensemble to Prague Spring on Friday night for more than a concert., in which he proved there is still no one quite like him who combines political consciousness with superb musicianship.

The night got off to a very classical, Viennese start when Vladimir Fedoseyev took the stage of the golden hall on Saturday night at the Musikverein.

Rachmaninov’s symphonic poem The Isle of the Dead is an intense piece of music. Inspired by a painting by Böcklin, Rachmaninov tells us of the journey to the underworld. The first moments of the piece are crucial to any performance, and Valery Gergiev lead the Rotterdam Philharmonic into a heavy and emotionally laden rendition.

The LSO presented two lengthy, challenging works in this evening’s concert dedicated to the late Maurice Murphy, former principal trumpeter. No doubt Murphy would have been proud of the orchestra’s efforts on this occasion, with the brass section particularly excelling themselves in the Mahler.
