Without a shadow of doubt, a brilliant programme all round: Sibelius, Prokofiev & Saariaho in Berlin with Jan Lisiecki, Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin & Tarmo Peltokoski
[…] Finnish ancestry on his father’s side and Filipino on his mother’s. He’s a conductor certainly going places, one destination - Toulouse, France. In September 2022, Peltokoski first guest conducted there the Orchestre national du Capitole de Toulouse returning for a further appearance only a month later. Now he finds himself the orchestra’s new music director. Bonne chance! I must say, too, that Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin is in safe hands under the direction of Robin Ticciati. He has been at the crease since 2017 and since 2014 is enjoying a good innings as music director of Glyndebourne Festival Opera.

It is certainly refreshing, though it should not be, to have a production that takes class seriously as a form of […]

Robin Ticciati at San Francisco Symphony
Davies Symphony HallPhoto by Lisa HirschQuite a difference of opinion between myself and Joshua Kosman as to last week's SFS program of Jörg Widmann's (first) violin concerto and Mahler's fourth symphony:Joshua Kosman, SF ChronicleLisa Hirsch, SFCVA couple of comments:Joshua Kosman knows the Widmann better than I do, although my preparation did include listening to the Tetzlaff recordings a couple of times with the score.My companion and I were both mesmerized by the piece, which came across well.I heard a couple of very bad Mahler performances last year (Dudamel, Shani) and heard nothing like that in Ticciati's Mahler.
