Festival: Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad

Iestyn Davies shows how to make every word count in a fairly standard sampler of Baroque arias; Ticciati is a fireball on the podium with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe.

Giovanni Antonini leads Il Giardino Armonico through a sampler of Vivaldi's L'estro armonico, with a stellar Isabelle Faust leading the soloists.

Watching Ma inspire younger musicians is an extraordinary experience. Renaud Capuçon conducts an entertaining if imperfect Eroica.
