Christopher Warren-Green

“Warren-Green conjured up poetry and theatrics in other spots. When the music needed warmth from the strings rather than massiveness, he helped them savour the sleekness and glow of the tunes. The “Festival at Baghdad” was bustling and flashy. When it came time to wreck Sinbad's ship, Warren-Green whipped up crashing waves of sound.” (The Charlotte Observer, January 2009)

“[Christopher Warren-Green led]… the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra with breadth and panache through Rimsky-Korsakov's opulent Scheherazade and Mussorgsky's gaudy “Night on Bald Mountain” (in Rimsky's orchestration).” (The Charlotte Observer, January 2009)

“Wednesday evening's first offering of the '08 "Messiah" at Minneapolis' Basilica of St. Mary was an interpretation of great delicacy, one at its most compelling when letting the sadness emerge. Under the direction of English conductor Christopher Warren-Green, it was a performance as graceful and smooth as his confident conducting… Wednesday's audience was well served by his emphasis upon precision from the strings, power from the choir and openhearted emotion from the vocal soloists.” (Pioneer Press, December 2008)

“…the sensitive, light accompaniment [was] provided by the London Chamber Orchestra under the baton of Christopher Warren-Green” (The Times, November 2008)

“In the essential ingredients of this music, with its lilt, sway, heartstopping teasing of musical timing and effortless ebb and flow, Warren-Green was matchless… Everything was the same; the music, the programming, Warren-Green’s inexhaustible vocabulary of techniques and style, and the general delivery; and his timing in this fiendishly tricky music is light years ahead of the efforts of many conductors” (The Herald, January 2008)
