"Conductor Steps in Unrehearsed [New York Philharmonic] ... If Ms. Ben-Dor had merely survived in a work as complex as the Mahler ... she would have done well; she did more, making the interpretation ... her own"

The Los Angeles Times
Mark Swed
... Ben-Dor is a star on the rise and very much ready
for prime time.
... She is also just the conductor we have been waiting
for to make a really persuasive case for Latin composers
like Villa-Lobos and Revueltas, whose music should be
heard more than it is.
... She is a conductor with a streak of wildness in
her, and she let the demon in Revueltas out.
... The only Dvorak I know to match what she had in
mind here was the kind of violent Dvorak that Furtwangler
conducted in Berlin during World War II. The Eighth
is usually thought of as a lyrical symphony. And Ben-Dor
did not shy away from big dug-in sweeps of lyricism.
She even brought back portamento, that sentimental sliding
from string to string, now discredited.
But lyricism with Ben-Dor is calm before the storm
... the conductor proved relentless. The sense of urgency
of this performance was downright astounding.
... There is surely no holding back a conductor with
so ferocious a talent.
