‘Musikalisch ist der neue Weimarer Tristan tadellos. GMD Stefan Solyom fasziniert mit der Staatskapelle...’
‘The new Tristan at the Weimar National Theatre is musically impeccable. The musical director Stefan Solyom and the Staatskapelle are captivating and mesmerising.’
‘...auch Wagner-Neuling Stefan Solyom wurde mit seiner Staatskapelle vom Premierenpublikum hochverdient gefeiert. Beeindruckend, mit wie viel Sensibilität Dirigent und Orchester Unterschwelliges zutage treten ließen, das Lauernde in der Ouvertüre, die Hysterie, die Tristans Fieberwahn illustriert.’
...Stefan Solyom beweist am Pult seiner Staatskapelle nicht nur einmal mehr, dass das ein traumhaftes Wagnerorchester ist, sondern auch, dass er selbst ein Meister eben dieses Klangbildes ist. Perfekt und sinnlich klingt das, was aus dem Graben heraufschallt. Fantastisch transparent wird die Wagnersche Partitur, die Solyom mit der ganzen Palette dynamischer Möglichkeiten ausmalt.
‘...Wagner newcomer Stefan Solyom and his Staatskapelle were deservedly celebrated by the audience. The sensitivity with which the orchestra and the conductor brought out the subtle nuances was impressive.’
Stefan Solyom proved with his Staatskapelle once again that they are a fantastic orchestra for Wagnerian repertoire, but also that Stefan himself is a master of sound. Exquisite and sensuous sounds arose from the pit. Stefan brought the fantastically transparent sounds of Wagner's score out through the orchestra and highlighted a wide range of dynamics.
“It was a sensational performance... electrifying, emotionally exhaustive and utterly gripping...At the forefront was Solyom's palpable dynamism. He exudes character, which translated into musical charisma the moment he fired up the [BBC Scottish Symphony] orchestra”
It is not difficult to understand what attracted the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra to Stefan Solyom; creating a special position for him as associate guest conductor... Put simply, Solyom has a way of making the BBCSSO sound gorgeous.

Energetic, engaging and galvanising – He fairly danced through Mahler’s Fourth Symphony, bringing out thrilling colours from the brass.
