Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | Lucerne

The Czech conductor makes the short hop from Salzburg to replace Riccardo Chailly in an all-Mahler programme at the Lucerne Festival. 

Sensational Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Flórez and pianist Vincenzo Scalera present a programme of Lieder, salon pieces and operatic arias, for a very successful concert.

William Christie leads his legendary orchestra and a group of young singers in a successful performance of Handel’s semi-serious opera.

After months of alerts, isolation and uncertainty, it was good to have the Lucerne Festival back, with effervescent performances of Mozart and Schubert.

In an upbeat programme, Cecilia Bartoli and the Musiciens du Prince-Monaco pay tribute to the dynamism of four leading Baroque composers.

As part of a programme of works by Mozart, Debussy and Stravinsky, conductor Andris Nelsons recently paired up the venerable Gewandhausorchester Leipzig with the fine German pianist, Martin Helmchen.
