Haitink

Bernard Haitink conducted a great concert with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. The concert included Schumann’s piano concerto and a symphony by Bruckner. Bruckner’s symphonies are “like vast cathedrals” and the RCO did a great job with it. The reviewer seems to have been well-impressed by the concert, including a great soloist on the Schumann. Haitink has been known as one of the best conductors in Europe right now and he clearly has his crew well in hand. The soloist, a Mr. Perahia is an impressive pianist and he really laid it all out on the Schumann. If the RCO is coming to your area, make sure to see them!
