Eve Queler has her shortcomings as a conductor. But a conductor's main task is to make a performance happen, to bring all the elements together, and Ms. Queler has been doing this with scrappy determination for 30 years in her role as music director of the Opera Orchestra of New York. Her invaluable mission has been to present concert performances of little-known or problematic operas with the best casts available.
After years of experience in trio, quartet or septet, this time Eve Beuvens presents the compositions of her album “Inner Geography” in solo: eight tracks somewhere between impressionism and introspection.
