“Taddei nailed the work by catching its essence with superb tempos, scrupulous balances and a dynamic grasp of each of the three movements.”
“the music’s essential lyricism, geniality and good humour readily came to the fore under Taddei’s direction.”
“Conductor Marc Taddei struck a near ideal balance between drama and spaciousness with the NZSO in Schubert’s Fifth Symphony.”
“the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Marc Taddei, was sharp and sweet to the point of being, quite simply, awesome.”
“Orchestral bonuses, with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra conducted by Marc Taddei , include the exhilarating, improbable ordered dance.”
Also – note my wife, Justine Cormack‘s latest CD with Michael Houstoun is also a holiday pick! Purchase both at atoll records!
