En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Danse hongroise no. 6 en ré majeur

Avec un fameux Viennois invité à la direction et au violon solo, l'Orchestre national de Lyon a proposé à son public un concert du Nouvel An festif, très réussi.

The pairing of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony with the Violin Concerto of Brahms felt conspicuously like a calling card from an orchestra that sees itself as a contender for wider recognition, on this showing with good reason.

HK Gruber's wit shines through this concert centred on Brecht and Weill's bitingly sarcastic songs from The Threepenny Opera; Håkan Hardenberger thrills with magical playing of trumpet and flugelhorn.

Fischer and his Budapest Festival Orchestra gave a breath-taking performance, with  concentration and class.
