From the press:
"Guest conductor Daniel Cohen's... exuberant gestures must be a boon for such a large orchestra: leaving the players in no doubt what he wanted, when he wanted it, and how much of it he was expecting and when each note was going to stop - and it did."
[BBC Jersery, 14/01/2008]


"Beethoven's Grosse Fugue op 133 offered a fiery finish to an debut for an adventurous orchestra and conductor one hopes to hear again very soon..."

[M. Miller, M&V, London  16/08/2005]


"...a masterly account of Wagner's Siegfied Idyll at St Martin-in-the-Fields[...]

the conductor's own vivid orchestration of the Piano Prelude no 6, Des pas sur la niege, by Debussy, full of atmosphere and aptly icy delicacy[...] subdued sence of sonority painted the snow scene with cinematic aura, still faithful to Debussy's sound world..."

[Music and Vision, London
17/02/2007]
links to articals:

MUSO
"...A great pleasure. I can’t otherwise describe this concert, at the end of which the audience simply kept sitting and rhythmically clapping, refusing to leave and say goodbye. The main hero of this concert was conductor Daniel Cohen: every soloist's dream… Cohen is equally a treasure for the orchestra: the Israel Chamber Orchestra sounded so energetic and full of life under his baton. The players had no alternative then to be constantly with him, going at high speed, preparing themselves to the extreme dynamic changes and producing their best sound and expression…"

[Noam Ben Zeev, Ha'arez 18/02/10]

"A wonderful conductor was born. Daniel Cohen, a young man of 26, a mere child in orchestral conducting terms. He doesn't flap his arms about, no pretense posing. On the contrary: with him all is natural, as if the music was poring out of his ears, hand and shoulders. His Bach was Cholesterol-free, utterly innocent of the excess fats of orchestral playing. He is not conducting in the normal sense of the word, he was making music, and what music! It was Daniel Cohen's evening. Mark my words: he will reach great things."

[Hanoch Ron, Yediot Acharonot 06/06/10]
