“What a concert! The British maestro inspired the Tampere Philharmonic into a warm glow and wonderful solos… I can’t remember the last time I heard such a lively and dramatic ‘En Saga’. Warren-Green allowed the few big climaxes of the work to erupt thunderously, and at the same time he tended the continuity in the more understated sections.”

“This moving evening of music was capped by a stunning performance of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ “Dona Nobis Pacem,” with the crack Providence Singers joining the orchestra. The much-recorded British conductor Christopher Warren-Green, maestro for royal weddings, was on the podium. And after a Beethoven overture that was a tad too polite, he presided over a heartfelt rendition of the wistful Elgar Cello Concerto, with Philharmonic favorite Colin Carr tackling the solo parts…This was by far the best program of the season”
“Warren-Green was transported at one point to leap into the air, and the collective power of his “Lord of Lords” sent chills through me.”
“The maestro certainly sparked a fleet, zesty performance from the orchestra, especially the trumpets and the trombones, who brought gilded fire to the heraldic episodes.”
“What a concert! The British maestro inspired the Tampere Philharmonic into a warm glow and wonderful solos […] under the baton of Christopher Warren-Green ”En saga” by Sibelius grew into a magical story. The hall was filled with a warm, colourful and wonderfully sparkling sound, which exactly corresponded with the mystical and even tempestuous story of ”En saga”. I can’t remember the last time I heard such a lively and dramatic ”En saga”. Warren-Green allowed the few big climaxes of the work erupt thunderously, and at the same time he tended the continuity in the more understated sections.” *****
“[The Dvorak]… had a lot of edge, a lot of energy and sweep. The slow movement was spellbinding, giving way to a driving scherzo and a blazing finale. It was a memorable performance.”
“From the first slow notes [of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony] … Warren-Green had the confidence to build gradually, trusting us to stay with him. The warm, weighty opening came to full speed slowly, like a locomotive picking up steam as it climbed a long grade. The second movement burst forward like an undammed brook; the musicians played with such fervor they had to retune when it ended.”
“As for Dvorak’s Ninth (or “New World”) Symphony, conductor Christopher Warren-Green and the orchestra summoned up all of the appropriate drama on the work’s opening movement, sections and soloists stepping forward for consistently impressive turns.”
