Venue: Saanen Church

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.

The violinist (and, for tonight's purposes, conductor, stage director and performance artist) gives a rare and precious concert in Saanen’s beautiful church.

Intimate and powerful, Fischer's performance with Camerata Salzburg feels like a match made in heaven. 

The South African soprano wows the audience with astonishing vocal and dramatic qualities – but do they stretch to a programme of art song?

The 19-year-old performs four masterpieces presented in chronological order and illustrating the evolution of the art of the keyboard from the mid-18th to the mid-20th century.

The Italian pianist's recital included Schubert Impromptus and rarely heard works by Beethoven and CPE Bach.
