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

Steven Osborne was lucid and detailed in his interpretation, lighting the technical fireworks as appropriate and seductive in the long and languid sixth movement, Jardin du sommeil d’amour.

On Friday, 25 October, the São Paulo Symphony presented an energetic and polished performance at the Southbank Centre. Part of the “The Rest is Noise Festival” focused on 20th century music, this programme took the turbulent 1960s as its theme.

If anyone in tonight’s audience was hoping for a recital of the Swingle Singers’ greatest classical arrangements from the past 50 years, they would have come away disappointed.
