Soirée de quatuors avec piano à l'Auditorium du Louvre : le Quatuor Skride apporte son panache aux œuvres de Schubert, Suk et Brahms.

Retour sur le dernier concert de l’Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France cette saison, avec la création du Triple Concerto de Sofia Gubaïdulina. 

En cette année 2015 qui honore les 150 ans de Sibelius, Mikko Franck, futur directeur du Philharmonique de Radio France, propose un concert qui lui est entièrement dédié. Quatre œuvres à la fois différentes et typiques du grand compositeur finlandais étaient au programme de ce magnifique concert. 

Pour ce programme pour le moins éclectique, l’ONCT accueillait le très jeune mais non moins talentueux chef américain Joshua Weilerstein et la violoniste soliste lettone Baiba Skride.

L'Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France accueillait le chef russe Vasily Petrenko et la violoniste Baiba Skride pour un superbe voyage dans les ténèbres de Szymanowski et de Mahler.

Skride’s approach is not based on power, glamour or virtuosity but is anchored by poetic expressivity and tonal beauty

Stravinsky's Violin Concerto is a favourite of Baiba Skride's, played here with evident enthusiasm, and a chamber music feel to the interchanges with the wind and brass. 

La Sinfónica de Galicia cierra la temporada con un intenso viaje desde la música de Sofia Gubaidulina a la Cuarta sinfonía de Brukner, un magnífico y exitoso colofón a un ciclo lleno de momentos inolvidables.

La Gewandhausorchester y Andris Nelsons mostraron una intensa compenetración y ofrecieron un brillante concierto lleno de intensidad.

Vor der Sommerpause der Berliner Philharmonie kostete das DSO unter Tugan Sokhiev in farbigsten Tönen den Klangzauber Tschaikowskys aus.

Baiba Skride has an incredible way of naturally engaging the listener’s emotions while transcending with ease the most challenging demands of the score.

Slobodeniouk retornó a la temporada de su Sinfónica de Galicia con un didáctico programa formado por tres obras pertenecientes cada una de ellas a siglos distintos e interpretadas por orden cronológico. Como aliciente, que sin duda contribuyó al casi lleno en la sala, se contó con la presencia de la violinista Baiba Skride, la cual en pocos meses acompañará a Slobodeniouk en su debut en la temporada de la Orquesta Filarmónica de Berlín.

A Dvořák-Schubert double bill at this year’s celebrated Schubertiade featured a host of extraordinary artists in a tight and dynamic performance.

Petrenko and the RLPO tackle familiar Berlioz and unfamiliar Kodály and Szymanowski.  

Sofia Gubaidulina has always been drawn to non-traditional sounds, something which invariably landed her in trouble during the Soviet era. The bayan, a 200-button Russian accordion, became the source for many of those sounds in solo and concerted pieces. “It breathes,” she has said, possessing an “earthy quality like no other instrument”.

Mixed results in Andrés Orozco-Estrada’s weighty program of Kodály, Ives, and Strauss alongside the Sibelius Violin Concerto with Baiba Skride. 

Colorful works by Mussorgsky, Dutilleux, and Ravel surround Shostakovich’s gray Soviet-era Violin Concerto no. 2.

A mesmerising harmony on stage made a lasting impression in one of Andris Nelsons's last Birmingham concerts.

Baiba Skride and Tugan Sokhiev joined the LSO at the Barbican for Messiaen, Bartók and Tchaikovksy. It was a memorable evening that demonstrated why the best performances are not necessarily the most faultless ones.

Rachmaninov's The Bells proved the highlight of Prom 43, with fabulous soloists and huge choral forces who stole the show in the third movement.

Mendelssohn developed quite a soft spot for Birmingham, even producing a sketched portrait of the city. At the centre of this portrait stands Joseph Hansom's splendid neoclassical Town Hall where Mendelssohn conducted several of his own works, most famously the première of his great oratorio, Elijah.

Although Vasily Petrenko only gave his first concert as chief conductor of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra last week, Monday’s Prom heralded this as an exciting new partnership. In a programme built around dreams and fantasy, Petrenko led the orchestra through some fantastic performances, with their Tchaikovsky especially praiseworthy.

Andris Nelsons marked the second instalment in the Birmingham Beethoven cycle with two works of the earliest years of the 19th century, featuring a solid account of the Eroica and a superb performance of the Triple Concerto.The Triple Concerto is a strange work.

Friday night’s performance by the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra was not just in the National Concert Hall: it was also recorded live for RTÉ Lyric FM. Despite the additional pressure of a national audience, the orchestra performed to their much-acclaimed high standard.

This late-season concert in the intimate BBC Hoddinott Hall was Thomas Søndergård’s first as Principal Conductor Designate of the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, following his appointment to the role this week. The concert featured three pieces all looking to the future, in some way: Sibelius’ En Saga, a Prokofiev Violin Concerto and Dvořák’s New World Symphony.
