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

En conclusion de la 10e édition du festival toulonnais, les deux musiciens ont livré un récital remarquable par son lyrisme et son énergie.

Invité de la Biennale, le jeune Quatuor Goldmund exacerbe les reliefs des quatuors de Haydn et Mendelssohn. Une création française de Dobrinka Tabakova apporte une lumière bienvenue sur ce programme classique.

Mit dem Münchner Ensemble Vokalzirkel und dem in London ansässigen Barbican Quartet präsentierte das Davos Festival zwei vielversprechende Formationen. Die Kombination war indes mehr ein Nebeneinander als ein Miteinander. 

The Sixteen offer glorious tones, smooth polyphonic lines and vivid word paintings at the National Concert Hall. 

Conductor and organist prove their strong musical bond at Bridgewater Hall, peaking in Saint-Saëns’ Third Symphony. 

Schubert's Unfinished Symphony proves a memorable climax to the young Norwegian conductor's matinee at Bridgewater Hall, after a lacklustre Beethoven piano concerto. 

Six pieces, all of them different, all of them new to the Proms, most by living composers, and all played superbly. A great contemporary music Prom.

Benjamin Britten’s 1948 cantata communicates with more invention and originality than recent works by Tabakova and Rutter.

Drei Uraufführungen stehen im Mittelpunkt des Programms beim Manchester International Festival.

A month into the year-long "Nature Unwrapped" programme at Kings Place, it was the turn of its resident Aurora Orchestra to contribute to the series.

Under guest director Lorenza Borrani a subdued ACO offers a programme of arrangements of Prokofiev and Beethoven sandwiching a new work by Dobrinka Tabakova.

The “Festival Tour” and its three-venue concerts of the Davos Festival programme included almost as many visual and outdoor delights as it did musical treats. 

Since its inception in 1986, the Davos Festival has given a platform to more than 2,080 young artists of promise. This 33rd festival year is no exception. 

Imaginative Bach and an exciting new work by Dobrinka Tabakova played by the Amsterdam Sinfonietta with pianists Ferhan and Ferzan Önder.

Music from Vaughan Williams is contrasted with two pieces from Dobrinka Tabakova  in The Scottish Ensemble’s candlelit concert, Ascent. Senior NYOS strings swell the ranks to produce a reflective evening of richness and warmth.

Infectious energy from musicians who breezed through a diverse and challenging programme without music stands or chairs, in which Benedict Mason displayed his originality.

An introductory reading by local writer Philip Pullman was an appropriate introduction to the “Dusk to Dawn” concert, one of the last in this year’s Oxford Chamber Music Festival (themed “Fairytales and Fantasy”). The collision of a light-hearted surface with darker undertones was not just in Pullman’s retelling of the Grimm stories, but pervaded Artistic Director Priya Mitchell’s programming.

After weeks of foul weather, this was more like it. Proper sunshine for a summer festival. Around Hereford Cathedral, watched over by a statue of Elgar draped in a fresh laurel wreath, Three Choirs Festival-goers enjoyed the warmth before venturing inside for equally sunny music. Even the yellow flowers framing the stage carried through the theme, setting off the golden centre-stage harp.

While Iain Farrington’s Animal Parade provided the fun and fireworks of this extraordinary recital at Brentwood Cathedral there is no doubt that it was the world premiere of Dobrinka Tabakova’s Diptych that stole the show.
