Recital

The English tenor lent his voice to dark material at a performance of “The Music and Poetry of the Great War.”

A young pianist dares to depart from the score and makes his points strongly, a la Glenn Gould.

Touring behind the release of 1865, their last album together, Anonymous 4 focused on a classic repertoire of American song.

The mezzo soprano's recital in San Francisco with pianist Julius Drake offered rich payoffs in the middle of the program, oddities at the beginning and end.

The American tenor masters every moment in his spectacular solo recital debut.

In a recital that was almost a house concert, the music was well-served.

Powerful American tenor Matthew Polenzani knocked a delightfully eccentric program out of the (First Congregational) Church in Berkeley Saturday night.

Anne Sofie von Otter is a great performer you root for. But her recital with pianist Angela Hewitt was not all gold, despite that.

Warm and fuzzy it wasn't, but Gidon Kremer's traversal of two pieces by Soviet composer Mieczysław Weinberg were worth the price of admission.

Amid all the fabulous concerts that are part of the Music@Menlo 2013 festival, “Through Bach”, don’t overlook this one, in which Soovin Kim will cut a swath through four centuries of violin repertoire in one astonishing program.
