The Week in Reviews, Op. 331: Philippe Quint; Handel and Haydn Society
In an effort to promote the coverage of live violin performance, Violinist.com each week presents links to reviews of notable concerts and recitals around the world.
Violinist Philippe Quint.
Philippe Quint performed a recital called "Between Angels and Demons: A Musical Portrait" with pianist Jun Cho in collaboration with the North Shore Chamber Music Festival.
- WTTW: "(In) Quint’s deftly narrated program – which included performances of more than a dozen short but devilishly difficult pieces by Piazzolla, as well as by tango legend Carlos Gardel, Ginastera, Stravinsky, Bartok, Boulanger, Duke Ellington and J.S. Bach – the gradual evolution of the nuevo tango came vividly to life."
Handel and Haydn Society performed Handel's Messiah at at Symphony Hall in Boston with conductor Harry Christophers.
- Boston Classical Review: "Sung with both poignance and vitality, this reading opened the holiday season on a profoundly spiritual note that promises to linger in memory....The H&H period-instrument orchestra supported the singers with an accompaniment marked by the full Baroque power and sensitivity one has come to expect from (Harry) Christophers’s guide."
