All the Music in the World, a new portrait of Emanuel Ax by Joseph Levy, has its first public screenings at @docnycfest tonight and tomorrow.
The documentary follows Emanuel in his 50th year on stage: rehearsing, recording with longtime collaborator @yoyoma, preparing for the premiere of a new concerto by John Williams, and sustaining a touring schedule of close to a hundred concerts a year. Alongside Yo-Yo Ma, it features artists including Itzhak Perlman, Leonidas Kavakos, Michael Tilson Thomas, @alisaweilerstein and @rafaelpayareconductor.
Three years in the making, the film was first shown at @tanglewoodmusicfestival this summer.
Full information and trailer via link in bio.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ”fiery abandon with icy restraint” - @the.scotsman
Last month saw @samuelsenofficial make her debut with the @scottishchamberorchestra in two performances as part of their New Dimensions series, play-directing the ensemble in Max Richter’s The Four Seasons Recomposed.
Mari and Richter share a close partnership, with the violinist appearing as soloist for the premiere of Voices at the Barbican, as well as on the premiere recording of Three Worlds. She has also performed The Four Seasons Recomposed multiple times with Richter on the podium.
Tomorrow then sees her return to the @rteconcertorchestra – again for Recomposed alongside works by Hania Rani, Nils Frahm, Philip Glass and Arvo Pärt. A second performance with the orchestra at the @nationalconcerthall sees Mari perform Philip Glass’ Violin Concerto No.1.
This month also brings the world premiere of Lauri Porra’s Beyond the Sky with Dalia Stasevska, soprano Aphrodite Patoulidou and the @oulusinfonia. She is reunited with Stasevska later in the season for the Glass concerto for her debut with the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra at the Concertgebouw.

Askonas Holt is delighted to welcome @deniskozhukhin to the roster for general management.
2026 has seen Denis return to the London Symphony Orchestra for their European tour with Sir Antonio Pappano for Bernstein’s Symphony No.2 The Age of Anxiety which included performances at the Wiener Musikverein, Alte Oper Frankfurt, Konzerthaus Dortmund and London’s Barbican. He also returned to the Royal Festival Hall with the Philharmonia Orchestra, to the Concertgebouw with the Netherlands Philharmonic as part of a nationwide tour led by Lorenzo Viotti, and to the Megaron in Athens to perform the complete Rachmaninoff concerti on consecutive nights. He also gave a recital at Wigmore Hall to celebrate the release of his latest CD of Haydn sonatas on Pentatone.
Coming up, Denis returns next month to the Melbourne Symphony for their Brahms cycle conducted by Jaime Martín, and also makes returns to the National Symphony Orchestra of Washington with Eva Ollikainen, the NHK Symphony Orchestra with Paavo Järvi, and features in the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne’s 'Fête Beethoven' alongside Martha Argerich, Rudolf Buchbinder and Elisabeth Leonskaja. He also gives solo recitals in Flagey and Melbourne, and continues his recital partnership with Janine Jansen across Europe and Asia, including performing the complete Beethoven sonatas together across three concerts at the Concertgebouw to mark the 200th anniversary of the composer's death.
As a @pentatonemusic recording artist, Denis’ discography spans works by Haydn, Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky, Grieg, Ravel and Gershwin.

He also made his UK debut in the title role of Onegin at The Grange Festival, as well as his Austrian debut singing Dancairo in Carmen at Tiroler Festspiele Erl.
Coming up, Vladislav makes his Italian debut as Shchelkalov in Boris Godunov at the Teatro Regio di Parma under the baton of James Conlon.

Askonas Holt is delighted to welcome @guy_cutting_tenor to the roster for worldwide general management.
The British tenor this month joined the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra for a performance of Britten’s Les Illuminations and Tom Coult’s Black Shuck Lament. He follows this with an international tour of Handel’s Theodora with the Monteverdi Orchestra and Choir singing Septimus, and also tours Europe later this season with RIAS Kammerchor singing the Evangelist in St Matthew Passion – a role for which he is highly sought. Spring brings his debut with the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks with Sir Simon Rattle for Bach’s Cantata 78, and a Wigmore Hall recital with his brother, counter-tenor Hugh Cutting.
Guy returned this summer to the BBC Proms with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and Peter Whelan. Last season also saw a performance at Carnegie Hall with the Handel + Haydn Society led by Jonathan Cohen, as well as a tour of Europe with Collegium Vocale Gent and Philippe Herreweghe – with whom he is a regular collaborator.
Guy appears on numerous critically acclaimed recordings; Cappella Amsterdam's Stravinsky Late Works and Irish Baroque Orchestra's Messiah were both selected as Gramophone Editor's Choice and BBC Music Magazine Choral Choice, and his recording of Gabriel Jackson’s The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ won in the Choral category at the 2020 BBC Music Magazine Awards. Guy's debut album of English song will be released in 2027.

A special evening celebrating the launch of the Yannick Nézet-Séguin Mentorship Program, hosted by @rolex and our @ynsmentorship team.
In their formal education, young conductors spend years immersed in the music, as they should. But the role of a music director is about so much more than what happens on the podium. It takes vision, trust, and the ability to bring people together around a shared purpose. We need to create more opportunities for the next generation of conductors to develop these skills, to grow not only as artists, but as leaders.
Ready to take the next step as a conductor? Submit your application for the Yannick Nézet-Séguin Mentorship Program by November 15 at mentorship.yannicknezetseguin.com.

Askonas Holt is delighted to welcome @sunwook.kim_official to the roster for worldwide general management.
Building on two decades performing at the highest level as a pianist, he has emerged as a conductor in increasing international demand. Sunwook makes his subscription debut conducting the Rotterdam Philharmonic next month, and across the season he continues to play-direct concerti and conduct symphonies from Beethoven to Mahler in a single programme, including with the BBC Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Hong Kong Sinfonietta, and the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland. He also conducts London’s Philharmonia Orchestra for the first time on tour to Korea.
Recent conducting highlights include debuts with the Bamberger Symphoniker, the Israel Philharmonic, Iceland Symphony Orchestra and the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, which resulted in several immediate re-invitations. He also often conducts Seoul Philharmonic, Bournemouth Symphony, Norwegian Radio and Taipei Symphony.
Sunwook regularly play-directs the Beethoven concerti, most recently on an extensive tour of Europe and Korea with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, with concerts in Berlin, London, Toulouse, Eisenstadt, and Seoul.
As a soloist, Sunwook has appeared in the subscription series of the world’s leading orchestras, including the Berliner Philharmoniker, London Symphony Orchestra, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Staatskapelle Dresden, Chicago Symphony and the NHK Symphony. Last season he returned with the Berliner Philharmoniker and Kirill Petrenko on tour in Korea, playing Schumann’s Piano Concerto to critical acclaim.
As a recitalist he has appeared on the world’s finest stages, and presents the complete cycle of Beethoven Piano Sonatas across eight concerts with the Seoul Arts Center in 2027, marking the Beethoven anniversary year.

@gustavodudamel and the @nyphilharmonic this month embarked on their first tour since the conductor took up the helm of the orchestra at the start of the season. The two-week, ten-concert adventure saw performances in Paris, Barcelona, Madrid, Berlin, with concerts in Hamburg and Vienna this week, marking the orchestra’s first to Europe in almost a decade.
Repertoire included the Fifth Symphonies by both Mahler and Prokofiev, European premieres of new works by Tania León and Zosha Di Castri, and, to mark the 25th anniversary of 9/11, John Adams’ Pulitzer Prize–winning On the Transmigration of Souls, premiered by the orchestra in 2002.
The tour follows previous collaborations with Askonas Holt which saw tours to Asia in 2025 with Esa-Pekka Salonen, as well as in 2024, 2023 and 2019 with Jaap van Zweden. Askonas Holt is also proud to continue our longstanding partnership with Gustavo Dudamel following years of touring with the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela, including at this year’s FIFA World Cup 2026 Halftime Show which saw members of the SBSOV join Dudamel and musicians from the New York Philharmonic to perform before a global audience of millions.

Monday evening saw @junyanchenpianist and @effuimaono.tenor make their @royalalberthall debuts with the @philharmonia_orchestra for Classic FM Live. After orchestral works by R. Strauss and Mozart, Emmanuel took to the stage for performances of Schubert’s Ave Maria and Leoncavallo’s Mattinata, before joining forces with Sir Willard White for the Pearl Fishers’ Duet from Bizet’s Les pêcheurs de perles. Junyan opened her performance with Debussy’s Clair de lune, which “held the audience in rapt silence” (@classicfm), before treating the audience to the finale of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No.3.
The concert can be heard on Classic FM this Thursday at 7pm (local time), and will be broadcast on Sky Arts at 9pm on 30 November.
