New season brochure is out! So much amazing rep like Mahler 6, Das Lied vd Erde, Prokofiev 5, Verdi requiem, Adams Harmonielehre. New works by Mazzoli, Murphy, Miller. Exciting guest artists Yo-Yo Ma, Sarah Chang, Augustin Hadelich, Fazil Say, Yeol Eum Son and many more!

So wonderful to have my dear friends Arthur and Lucas Jussen playing Mendelssohn in Vancouver and inspiring us at the VSO School of Music

Conductor Tausk took #Mahler’s Sixth Symphony to heart, and gave a tight-knit reading of considerable dramatic reach. With @annathorvalds’s striking ‘Catamorphosis’, this was a very demanding Vancouver Symphony season opener, and they should be proud. vanclassicalmusic.com/otto-tausk-ope…

Even with lots of beautiful snow and other airlines flying, KLM puts safety first. Thank you from Oslo

Note to all composers: write your scores in C. The usual octave transpositions are ok. I spent 6 weeks deciphering the chords in Elektra. After that I decided I’ll not put any conductor colleagues through that unnecessary ordeal with my own scores.

The gorgeous Rady Shell in San Diego is almost like a big ear making music, tonight with the San Diego Symphony and Lang Lang!
