Korngold and Shostakovich at Dallas Symphony

“Conlon led a performance gripping start to finish, as attentive to the music’s hushed insinuations as to its sonic explosions, all with dramatic inevitability. The orchestra gave him its all, with particularly fine solos from David Buck (flute), Stephen Ahearn (clarinet), and Erin Hannigan (oboe).” The Dallas Morning News

“Conlon is no stranger to the DSO or the literature of composers oppressed by the state. A champion of composers and lesser-known works that were silenced by the Nazi regime, his interpretation of the material was undeniably sensitive and intentional, to which the ensemble responded in kind.” Texas Classical Review
