Das größte Ereignis des Abends war aber die erstklassige Gastdirigentin Debora Waldman, im Hauptberuf Chefdirigentin des Orchestre national Avignon-Provence. So genaue Gestaltung und so viel farbenreicher Feinsinn sind in der Philharmonie Mercatorhalle selten zu erleben. Ingo Hoddick

The biggest event of the evening, however, was the first-class guest conductor Debora Waldman, principal conductor of the Orchestre national Avignon-Provence. Such precise interpretation and so much colorful subtlety are rarely heard in the Philharmonie Mercatorhalle. Ingo Hoddick

The direction of Débora Waldman, precise, demanding, always concerned about everyone, has earned us an exemplary Verdi, powerful as well as intimate, restrained as feverish or violent. Blurring the dross of writing, dated, for lighter textures, where each instrument flourishes, in expressive phrasing, the conductor confirms her lyrical talents.
