Baiba Skride

Concert Review: Boston Symphony Orchestra Plays Shostakovich, Brahms, and Mackey

Under the baton of Andris Nelsons, a listless Boston Symphony Orchestra delivered flat renditions of works by Shostakovich and Brahms.

By: Aaron Keebaugh Filed Under: Classical Music, Featured, Music, Review Tagged: Andris Nelsons, Baiba Skride, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Steven Mackey

Music Commentary: Jean Sibelius’s Violin Concerto — The Universal Concerto?

Sibelius’s Violin Concerto is almost something of a phenomenon now: in just eight months, I’ve heard it played by three different fiddlers — Baiba Skride, Lisa Batiashvili, and Inmo Yang.

By: Jonathan Blumhofer Filed Under: Classical Music, Commentary, Featured, Music Tagged: Baiba Skride, Inmo Yang, Jean-sibelius, Jonathan Blumofer, Lisa Batiashvili, Violin Concerto in D minor

Concert Review: The Boston Symphony Orchestra Performs Carlos Simon, Sibelius, and Dvorak

The orchestra’s summer home is operating at reduced capacity this season, but it’s wonderful to have the BSO and its public reunited.

Classical CD Reviews: Offenbach’s “La Périchole,” Aaron Jay Kernis’ Orchestral Works, and Baiba Skride plays Bartók

Marc Minkowski’s recording of Jacques Offenbach’s La Périchole pays the composer a handsome tribute in his birthday year; violinist Baiba Skride’s new all-Bartók disc is one of the year’s best.

Classical Music Reviews: The Boston Symphony’s 2018-19 Season-closing Concerts

The final two concerts of the BSO’s season were in the orchestra’s sweet spot.

Classical CD Reviews: JoAnn Falletta conducts Schreker, Manfred Honeck conducts Beethoven & Strauss, and Baiba Skride’s “American Concertos”

JoAnn Falletta’s recording of Schreker’s orchestral works is fantastic; Manfred Honeck and his Pittsburgh Symphony make Beethoven’s Eroica Symphony shocking again, and Baiba Skride proves a strong advocate for Miklós Rózsa’s Violin Concerto.
