Thomas Agerfeldt Olesen: Violin Concerto
“The Dutch conductor Otto Tausk is equally attuned to the essence of this singular piece and ensures world-class accompaniment from the DNSO. Dacapo’s terrific recording exudes clarity – the balance between soloist and orchestra seems ideal.”
Thomas Agerfeldt Olesen: Der Wind bläset wo er will
“Tausk's familiarity with the composer allows him to effortlessly guide the orchestra through a 30-minute piece that violently shifts from lyrical fragility to tempestuous conflict.”
Ravel & Korngold: Piano Concertos for the Left Hand & Orchestra
"I have nothing but admiration for this recording, and Halverson and Tausk really make us come to admire, enjoy and perhaps even love this work."
-Robert Hugill, Nominated for the Spellemannprisen 2024
“Playing under the baton of Otto Tausk is every soloist’s dream.”
- Jean-Guihen Queyras, Cellist
Hans Pfitzner: Orchestral Songs
“Otto Tausk brings out Pfiztner’s particular qualities with great skill, without losing sight of the larger arc of the compositions, and even in extremely symphonic passages ensures that the accompaniment remains supportive of the soloist.”
-Neue Musikzeitung
Sergei Prokofiev: Violin Concertos
"This a reading that is beautifully executed and deeply engages with the two works" -James Manheim
Diepenbrock: Orchestral Songs
“Tausk gives a clear and emphatic reading of Diepenbrock's music. Both the great dramatic effects and the most intimate moments are filled with vibrant colors.”

What people say
“Working with Maestro Otto Tausk is always a remarkable musical experience. His extraordinary musicianship, artistic integrity and natural ability to inspire those around him make every collaboration both exciting and deeply rewarding.”
Javier Perianes
Pianist
“His respectful manner towards the musicians and the fact that he always arrived exceptionally well prepared contributed to the sense of optimism and dedication to artistic quality that was generally felt during the weeks in which Otto Tausk worked with us as a guest conductor.”
Kees Vlaardingerbroek
Dutch Musicologist
“Beyond his exceptional command of the classical repertoire (Beethoven, Schumann), it was extremely important to me that he conducted my own compositions (Mesopotamia Symphony) with such dedication and understood them in the best possible way. I followed his work with great admiration.”
