A third in-depth interview with America’s most distinguished conductors: this time, @andrewlitton_ https://t.co/WgU6JHu7Wu

Refreshing ‘mystery’ @VSOrchestra concert: young cellist Victor Julien Laferrière and conductor @antonyhermus, plus a historical composer Johannes Wagenaar. The crowning glory was Hermus’ Bruckner 6 which built with true spirit and radiant strength. https://t.co/ujrHnPZWgP

Though a little simple in construction, Arturo Márquez Fandango for Violin and Orchestra really packed a wallop when played with the flare and emotional commitment displayed by violinist Anne Akiko Meyers, conductor @andrewlitton_ and @VSOrchestra https://t.co/nHLVfupmOg

Very successful opening @VSOrchestra concert! @Stewartgoodyear gave powerful performance of #Rachmaninoff 3rd #PianoConcerto while @ottotausk showed great improvement in #Stravinsky #Firebird. https://t.co/YgIetCTGmg @SymphonicCinema @Lucas235 @JocelynMorlock

Superb #Chopin, #Debussy and #Szymanowski from 2005 Warsaw Chopin Piano Competition winner Rafal Blechacz, in another memorable concert from the @VancouverChopin Society https://t.co/bIkWiphwx9

An intriguing @VSOrchestra pairing of two theatrical works, directed by a master conductor, @LeonardSlatkin, with an inspired contribution from Principal Cellist Henry Shapard. https://t.co/yTXPm7QjUi

A powerful #Schumann #concerto and an entertaining ‘Pastoral’ symphony from Eric Lu and Earl Lee @earlconductor and @VSOrchestra. Lu continues the display his outstanding pianistic command, strength of purpose and lovely touch.

Lovely ensemble performing in an almost perfect sonic acoustic. Jeffrey Cohan’s cleanly-etched baroque flute line meshing with multi-shaded virtuosity of Susie Napper’s viola da gamba, with Stephen Stubbs’ subtle continuo. The results were exceptional. https://t.co/wcZCVUMoCP

Pianist Javier Perianes and @vanrecital gave us the opportunity to hear one of the greatest pieces of the 20th century piano repertoire, Enrique Granados’ Goyescas, in a very distinguished performance. https://t.co/GmEcCuY1Pk

[VCM @vanclassical]

Cellist @StevenIsserlis’ performance of the Elgar Cello Concerto with @VSOrchestra was quite stunning: vital and animated, yet full of tender repose, possibly finding a greater range of feelings than previously. @ottotausk https://t.co/Yvc7cE6HQ5

British rising star violist @RidoutTimothy  and pianist Jonathan Ware in his Canadian debut. @vanrecital One can only admire the strength and virtuosity of Ridout’s playing and his complete tonal command over all ranges of the instrument. https://t.co/LAEGEhP2Mg

‘Gerard Schwarz and the @VSOrchestra gave a superb performance of David Diamond’s Symphony No. 4 and, with violinist @KGomyo, collaborated in a wonderfully rich and involving account of #Barber’s popular Violin Concerto.’ https://t.co/7HJOv9awZ8

After our ‘Great Canadian Artists’ series, we now start one for ‘Distinguished American Maestros’, leading off with Gerard Schwarz, long-time conductor of the @seattlesymphony, who just presented a stunning American program with the @VSOrchestra https://t.co/8RvF2pXf4l #Interview

[VCM @vanclassical]

Conductor @ottotausk took #Mahler’s Sixth Symphony to heart, and gave a tight-knit reading of considerable dramatic reach. With @annathorvalds’s striking ‘Catamorphosis’, this was a very demanding @VSOrchestra season opener, and they should be proud. https://t.co/7a8Ib5Gii8

A fine concert to close the @VSOrchestra season. @StefanJackiw exhibited the highest level of violin artistry in the Brahms.
