Christopher Seaman press reviews

"Seaman's experienced, insightful leadership yielded not only confident but consistently interesting performances from the orchestra, which appeared to enjoy his presence on the Ohio Theatre podium.  Seaman's style is one of understated authority. There is little flash or folderal. He appears to be all about the business of making music and lets the interpretations speak for themselves, which they did last night -- resoundingly...  Last night's lovely, unhurried rendition brimmed with inner life, and great care had obviously been taken in shaping phrases in expressive, musical ways and putting dynamic contrasts in all the right places." (The Columbus Dispatch, March 2010)

“Christopher Seaman skillfully navigated the busy and significant orchestral writing, keeping the RPO locked in with Athayde.” (Democrat and Chronicle, January 2010)

“Seaman, who shares a cultural background with the composer, understands the nuances and profound emotion that can be found underneath the understated, conservative exterior of British music.” (Democrat and Chronicle, October 2009)
