En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Images, Série 3 no. 3: Rondes de printemps, pour orchestre

Les attentes du concert d’intronisation de Jonathan Nott à la tête de l’Orchestre de la Suisse Romande auront certainement un peu pesé sur un concert qui fut bon dans l’ensemble mais ne décollera jamais vraiment. Wait and see…

A masterful performance of Boulez's Notations crown a memorable evening rich delights, including rapturous Debussy and three very fine world premieres. 

Mixed performances from Poole but with an unforgettable Symphonie fantastique that was both illuminating and electrifying.

A typically adventurous programme "curated" by Esa-Pekka Salonen paired Boulez with Debussy. 

Tanto por la elección de las piezas a tocar como por los solistas invitados, el concierto que la Euskadiko Orkestrta Sinfonikoa ofreció este martes en el Baluarte fue un cariñoso guiño al genio musical francés que, en los años de su auge creativo, supo dibujó en el pentagrama los paisajes exóticos más próximos a sus fronteras.

The latest Sydney Symphony Orchestra concert had everything from French impressionism to a world premiere, to a performance of a much-loved Romantic Symphony. The evening opened with two movements from Debussy’s Images for orchestra. Written originally as a set of three movements, they stand equally well on their own.

Prom 10 was a heady mix of Franco-Spanish music, from Debussy’s evocative Images for orchestra to Manual de Falla’s exotic Nights in the Gardens of Spain, all under the baton, appropriately, of Basque-born conductor Juanjo Mena, who takes over as Chief Conductor of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in September.
