ReviewsMr. Schuller would surely have appreciated — a fitting 75th anniversary tribute indeed.
New York Times, July 2015 But all this proved good news for the young British conductor Jonathan Berman, who picked up all the works Mr. Knussen and Mr. Asbury were to have led, and did so with the kind of clarity and assurance that might have made headlines had he been thrust suddenly onto the Boston Symphony’s podium in a program of repertory staples. Wall street Journal July 2015 The chance to hear a Pelléas this good at venues right across the country is a rare one, and one that should be seized. TheArtsDesk, Oct 2015 Jonathan Berman conducted with energy, clarity and admirable phrasing………..Pelléas et Mélisande contains a great deal of ravishing music, and… is beautifully played and sung in this production BachTrack, Oct 2015 Jonathan Berman conducts with great care and elegance. It’s a brave, deeply affecting achievement. Guardian Oct 2015 For more reviews click here |
