En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Macbeth, Op.23

Invités à la Philharmonie pour deux soirées intégralement consacrées à Richard Strauss, le Gewandhausorchester et son directeur musical Andris Nelsons sortent l'artillerie lourde et forcent l'admiration.

After a long absence, the Cleveland Orchestra returns to the Golden City in style in a trio of Strauss works under Franz Welser-Möst.

A visit to London from Nelsons is always an occasion. The first of two programmes dedicated to Strauss demonstrated why the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig is among the best in the world.

After 19 months without live performances, Franz Welser-Möst and The Cleveland Orchestra opened the 2021/22 season with brilliant performances of works by Strauss and Prokofiev, plus a new concerto by Joan Tower, written especially for cellist Alisa Weilerstein.

Leif Ove Andsnes is supremely eloquent in Rachmaninov’s Fourth, but Strauss's Macbeth looks set to remain on the fringes. 

NSO gives another convincing performance of Shakespeare inspired works. 

Beim Konzert des RSO Wien mit Nicolas Altstaedt im Wiener Konzerthaus war große Musik und große Unterhaltung geboten.

The Bard met with boisterous performances in the LPO's latest instalment of Shakespeare400, but Khachaturian's Violin Concerto emerged with much subtlety.

Four composers from four countries "translate" Shakespeare

The Leipzig Kapellmeister Riccardo Chailly and his Gewandhausorchester demonstrate style and substance in two tone poems by Richard Strauss, with Christian Tetzlaff as the soloist in Mozart's K216 concerto.
