Salle: Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts: Venetian Theater, Katonah

Modest as ever, Daniil Trifonov offers another masterclass in how virtuosity is sublimated into poetry. 

For Richard Goode, returning to Beethoven’s last piano sonatas is not an extraordinary event, but rather a form of periodic devotion.

The premiere of Saad Haddad's Second String Quartet survives the downpour, the centrepiece of the Callistos’ recital in Caramoor’s Venetian Theater.

In Goode’s performance, Beethoven’s sonata appeared equidistant from the music of Bach and Schumann that preceded and followed it in the programme. 

Under Will Crutchfield’s direction the festival has focused on the rediscovery of forgotten 19th-century Italian works and celebrates the legacy of the bel canto era. 

A group of excellent singers and the Orchestra of St Luke's led by Will Crutchfield succeeded in presenting a moving concert performance of Poulenc's gut-wrenching opera.
