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

An evocative first half of music from Cuba, the USA and Mexico was followed by what should have been a fine New World Symphony... 

Domingo Hindoyan, Pacho Flores and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra set the BBC Proms on fire with music from the Americas.

A good audience turnout for the opening of Noseda's third NSO season justifies an all-20th-century program centering on Carl Orff's popular and direct setting of medieval poems about real life and fate, but also presenting gentler works of religious reflection.

An orchestral program on the theme of ecstasy, religious and profane, included a piano concerto by James MacMillan along with works by Jennifer Higdon, Debussy, and Scriabin.

Jennifer Higdon's blue cathedral holds its own alongside more familiar American pieces by Adams and Barber plus the “New World” Symphony.
