The Tonhalle Orchestra of Zürich was in its best form, inspired by the young conductor Cristian Orosanu… He conducted Bartok's "Romanian Dances" with a fine balance between spicy rhythms and popular melodies. In George Enescu's "Romanian Rhapsody..., of the year 1901, a mixture of music elements from Eastern and Western Europe, with pentatonic rhytms and gypsy melodies, all of these culminating in a a vivid and highly colorful performance. And in Stravinsky concert suite "Firebird" of 1919, Orosanu brought out the contrast between the racing rhytms and a refinded firework of colours, elements of quiet breathing and broad pulse which emerged admirably.
