A third in-depth interview with America’s most distinguished conductors: this time, @andrewlitton_ vanclassicalmusic.com/the-di…

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. vanclassicalmusic.com/uplift…

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 vanclassicalmusic.com/marque…

Very successful opening @VSOrchestra concert! @Stewartgoodyear gave powerful performance of #Rachmaninoff 3rd #PianoConcerto while @ottotausk showed great improvement in #Stravinsky #Firebird. vanclassicalmusic.com/an-ent… @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 vanclassicalmusic.com/anothe…

An intriguing @VSOrchestra pairing of two theatrical works, directed by a master conductor, @LeonardSlatkin, with an inspired contribution from Principal Cellist Henry Shapard. vanclassicalmusic.com/leonar…

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.   vanclassicalmusic.com/eric-l…

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. vanclassicalmusic.com/a-deli…

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. vanclassicalmusic.com/a-rich…

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 vanclassicalmusic.com/wonder…

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. vanclassicalmusic.com/timoth…
