Carnegie Hall Subscriptions - Great American Orchestras I
Great American Orchestras I
“Mr. Boulez and his players … gave [the music] the visceral wallop that Bartók intended,” raved the New York Times of a 2006 Carnegie Hall performance by Boulez with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Expect the same this season when these artists bring Bartók’s chilling one-act opera Bluebeard’s Castle to Carnegie Hall. Conductor Osmo Vänskä brings a similar gift to the music of Sibelius: Praising Vänskä’s recording of the heroic musical saga Kullervo, ClassicsToday.com noted its “tremendous sweep and passion.”
