Jon Lord in Budapest: Maestro-pieces galore
September 22, 2010
Jon Lord has reached a new level with his efforts to merge modern rhythmical music with the orchestral world. This became apparent Saturday night at Budapest‘s Béla Bartók National Concert Hall. The musical gods smiled down on a near-sold out Hungarian audience as they witnessed the world premiere of Jon Lord’s reworked Sarabande suite performed in full.
And quite fitting it is too that Lord would premiere this exact work here, inspired as it is largely by traditional music from this part of the world. With him onstage were local Deep Purple tribute band Cry Free and the Györ Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Márton Rácz. With Kasia Łaska as Jon Lord’s mainstay female vocalist and Attila Scholtz as stand-in for Steve Balsamo on male voice, it was a very strong lineup.
So let’s go back and relive that magical night.

Huge and deep impressions in Kiev
June 9, 2010
Kiev was the 3rd Jon Lord concert for Natalia Yanoushkevich and definitely the best so far. She writes:
‘Ukraine Palace is a huge and very beautiful venue, and the welcome that Kiev gave to Jon Lord was loud and warm-hearted. What amazed me most this time is Jon Lord’s will and ability to play and live his music as if this concert is the first and the last for him at the same time. It’s really incredible, it’s such an honour and a pleasure to witness.
Exceeding all expectations in Ukraine
June 9, 2010
