Fuse Classical Music Tip: Aimez Vous Brahms? Then Head to Tanglewood

Tired of glitz and looking for a transformative musical experience? You can do no better than to hear this relatively unheralded musician play some of the most sublime music ever written.

Concert Review: Boston Symphony Orchestra/Christoph von Dohnányi at Symphony Hall

If a few of his tempos, particularly in the opening movement, weren’t among the liveliest on record, there was a gravitas and underlying conviction to Mr. von Dohnányi’s interpretation of “A German Requiem” that were wholly appropriate to the piece and its appearance on a program that was presented during Holy Week.

Concert Review: The Luxurious Harmonies of the Newton Choral Society

Composer Frank Martin

The singers were in the mood, in a manner of speaking, and although they seemed quite still in posture, their voices generated an inner dance filled with delightful variations as they advanced through eighteen verses of varying tempo and emotions.

By: Anthony J. Palmer Filed Under: Classical Music, Featured Tagged: Daniel Pinkham, David Carrier, Frank Martin, Johannes Brahms, Newton Choral Society
