I'll be back with the @TheCBSO this Thursday with Mendelssohn's 1st concerto. Here's a clip from @CarnegieHall back in 2022. I'll be bringing this also to Paris at @OrchambreParis on 7th February.

Terrific drive-time concert @TheCBSO this week. Brahms 2, casually dressed orchestra, intros to their role in the piece from several players on stage. So uplifting to see this different, more welcoming approach

What can you get for a tenner? A wonderful @TheCBSO concert at ‘rush hour’. Great introductions from the orchestra and a fantastic performance of the sublime Brahms 2nd Symphony.
