Performer: Michael Barenboim

Michael Barenboim gives a powerful performance of Bartók's Violin Concerto no. 2; Domingo Hindoyan and the RLPO give equally strong accounts of music by Kodály and Dvořák.

Daniel Barenboim offered an unusually Germanic take on César Franck, while section leaders Michael Barenboim and Kian Soltani pulled double duty as soloists in Brahms' Double Concerto.

After four evenings and ten world premieres, Pierre Boulez Saal's A Festival of New Music comes to a haunting end.

With idyllic surroundings and culinary delights, the Varignana Festival combines relaxation with music.
