	SvD: Sibelius - Symfoni nr 2 — Sir Colin Davis
		Detta är tredje gången Colin Davis spelar in Sibelius sju symfonier och dirigenten håller en både jämn och hög nivå.
		Davis tvära tempoförändringar övertygar fullt ut. Symfonin växer fram på ett närmast organiskt sätt och de fyra satserna tillåts inte spreta åt olika håll.
		Davis har järnkoll och orkestern är en ren fröjd att höra.

	Alex Ross: The Rest Is Noise: Murder Will Out: Colin Davis' Peter Grimes
		Under the direction of Colin Davis, the L.S.O. has made a habit of descending on New York in the middle of winter and electroshocking the city out of its seasonal affective disorder with galvanic programs of works both familiar and unexpected.
		This time, we seemed to be hearing the music as the composer first heard it in his mind, in the Old Mill outside Aldeburgh village, at the height of the Second World War.
		I would not want to judge Glenn Winslade on the basis of this one outing; the tenor began to lose his voice at the end of Act II and was plainly not himself in the crucial Mad Scene.

		The train station in Davis is right in downtown, and as I walked out to where I thought there would be some fields to sleep in, I was amazed at the number of bicycles and the number of people scooting around on them, especially after another train arrived.
		Happy with what I'd seen of Davis (it was a place worth returning to), I contemplated catching the next train to Berkeley, but on the way back to the station, I decided to try to find the Davis Food Co-op, as I'd seen some their ads in the papers I picked up.
		Davis is also only a short though expensive train ride from a capital of carfree activism in the US, Walnut Creek (or maybe Berkeley).

		There was a hero's welcome last night when Sir Colin Davis returned to the Boston Symphony podium after an absence of 19 years.
		Between 1967 and 1984 he was a major figure in the life of the orchestra; he was heavily courted to become music director, and he did accept the position of principal guest conductor.
		Only about 40 BSO players from the earlier Davis era remain, but all of those who were onstage last night played their hearts out for him.

	classical music - andante - colin davis on hector berlioz
		Colin Davis adored Berlioz's music, and in the late 1950s he began to emerge as one of the composer's finest and most vital advocates.
		Gradually Davis took on almost all of Berlioz's orchestral, choral and operatic oeuvre; his performances were acclaimed for their blend of sensitivity and delicacy with brilliance and fire.
		For the 2003 Berlioz bicentennial, Davis and the LSO are paying special tribute to the composer with a series of three programs in London (February) and New York (March); he returns to the U.S. in April to lead the New York Philharmonic in BÃ©atrice et BÃ©nÃ©dict.

		Davis elegantly relates the role of ethics in distinction to Heidegger's concerns.
		Davis describes the "Levinas effect" which is often the product of reading his difficult prose.
		Davis argues that this effect shows us how Levinas has the ability to take the reader beyond Being since the text is constantly questioning and often frustrating the reader.

		For Davis, Nature also plays an important and not always acknowledged role in the opera, particularly evident in its juxtaposition with the doings of men.

	Beethoven: Fidelio - LSO/Sir Colin Davis : CD review
		This latest release from LSO Live is a sizzling account of Beethoven's Fidelio under their new President, Sir Colin Davis.
		Sir Colin is as keenly involved in the performance as ever, never letting the focus slip — though perhaps he's a little bit too involved, because his singing along with the orchestra and singers is clearly audible during many of the tracks!
		It's a shame that this could not have been reduced, because the sound quality is otherwise as vivid as the best of the previous recordings on the orchestra's own label.

		And special it is. The recordings come from the Colin Davis Berlioz cycle form the the 1970s.
		Berlioz composition is both Grand (the full title is "Grande Messe des morts", or "Grand Mass for the Dead") and sublime, and Davis captures the sublime elements as few other conductors have ever done.
		Sound is ever so important with a work as large as the Berlioz Requiem, and the Philips engineers, both the original recording engineers and the digital remastering engineers, deserve the bulk of the credit for this presentation.
