Mozart royal, Mahler sans âme : Martin Fröst et Sakari Oramo à Genève

Thomas Muller, 21st March

Sous la direction de Sakari Oramo, l'Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Stockholm propose une Symphonie n° 1 de Mahler bien morne. Compensée heureusement par la clarinette stratosphérique de Martin Fröst dans Mozart.

Edward Sava-Segal

Edward has been living in New York for the last 25 years, one of the reasons being the extraordinarily rich cultural life in this city. He has studied piano and classical music in his early years. He switched later on to computer science and data architecture but he kept an unwavering interest in following the classical music phenomenon here in New York and in his travels. Edward occasionally reviews fine arts events for the most prestigious literary magazine in Romania, his home country.
