“The National Youth Strings Academy, conducted with flair by Damian Iorio, gave needle-sharp performances of Britten’s Simple Symphony and Bartok’s Romanian Dances. Britten’s Playful Pizzicato was startlingly light and transparent”

“Sublime” Beethoven with Iorio and Kovacevich
Orchestra Sinfonica Siciliana – Nov 2003
Extraordinary success at the Politeama for the concert of the two artists
“On Friday evening at the Politeama Theatre (Palermo) we witnessed a great evening of music and an exceptional performance by the Orchestra Sinfonica Siciliana An outstanding young conductor, Damian Iorio, inspired the orchestra in one of the best performances that we have ever heard. In the Beethoven Concerto Damian Iorio’s energetic conducting was heroic and even exhilarating. The characteristics (of Dvoraks 9th Symphony) were vividly brought out by Iorio, who gave a remarkable reading of the score and showed an exceptional respect for the composers intentions. There was very enthusiastic applause from the public for both conductor and orchestra.”
