Summer Festivals
The idyllic Hasselburg manor hosts an outstanding line-up of soloists joining the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra for the opening concert of the 2020 Schleswig-Holstein Festival.
This week celebrating summer festivals around Europe starts with a flourish: the opening concert of the 2020 Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival which was recorded with no audience in early July. Every year since 2014, the Festival has invited an outstanding musician to spend the summer away from the bustle of daily life, performing up to 20 concerts and workshops with complete artistic freedom. This summer several portrait artists from the past few years came together to launch the "Summer of Opportunities" with this triumphant opening concert. Sol Gabetta, Martin Grubinger, Avi Avital, Sabine Meyer and Xavier de Maistre join the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra and conductor Alan Gilbert for concertante pieces by, among others, Bach, Boieldieu and Ishii Maki.
Later in the afternoon, the first of two archive performances this week from the wonderful Martha Argerich Project in Lugano, Switzerland: the Argentine-Swiss pianist performs Ravel's Piano Concerto in G.
