Fabien Gabel stepped in at the eleventh hour for an indisposed Mikko Franck to conduct the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France on Saturday in a fabulous programme of Richard Strauss Salome and Elektra with Asmik Gregorian as soloist.
Olyrix writes: “Fabien Gabel succeeds […] by making the phalanx of the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France unfold with frank colours that the direction and the clear - and sometimes dry - acoustics of the hall bring out, without ever chopping up the subject matter or reducing it to a succession of isolated technical feats.”
The concert is available here.
