Брамс и Штраус, дирижирует Лахав Шани — С Александром Канторовым, Алисой Вайлерштейн и Михаэлем Баренбоймом

Celebrated maestro Lahav Shani leads the Verbier Festival Orchestra and world-class soloists in two masterpieces of the Romantic era. Piano virtuoso Alexandre Kantorow opens the concert with Brahms’s Concerto No. 2 in B-flat Major, a monumental four-movement composition enchanting audiences from the opening call of the horn to the orchestral crescendo of the finale. World-class cellist Alisa Weilerstein and violist superstar Michael Barenboim then perform Strauss’s Don Quixote, “Fantastic variations on a theme of chivalric character”—a legendary tone poem based on Cervantes’ eponymous novel.
