“Marc Taddei brought his distinctive blend of equanimity and inspiring enthusiasm to his direction of Thursday night’s concert.”
“What these players achieved with conductor Marc Taddei in places was spell-binding…”
“…under Taddei’s masterly baton, drew forth sounds of Edwardian splendor with a precision and richness…
What a wonderful concert…”
“Since Marc Taddei took over the Vector Wellington Orchestra, he has attracted big audiences to concerts, and has done so again with a programme that, on paper at least, looked eccentric. Not to worry, the concert was, partly thanks to the unusual programming, a fresh, unhackneyed, affair, distinguished … by excellent playing.”
“…Taddei led a vividly colorful reading of ‘Pictures [at an Exhibition].’ His well-judged pacing and sense of swing in dance rhythms also propelled performances of Prokofiev’s “Lieutenant Kijé” Suite and the “Polovtsian Dances” from Borodin’s “Prince Igor.”
