Gstaad Conducting Academy - Concert II
This is the culmination of two weeks of intensive work under the experienced direction of Jaap van Zweden, Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla and Johannes Schlaefli, who have a first-class orchestra at their disposal in the form of the Gstaad Festival Orchestra. It is a special moment for each of the participants, especially as the Neeme Järvi Prize beckons as a reward, which promises performances at the podium of the best Swiss orchestras as well as orchestras from abroad. There is sure to be fierce competition to convince the jury that the many hours of conducting lessons have borne rich fruit. If you were impressed by the versatility of the conductors and the different musical facets, then you should not miss this experience two days later: The Gstaad Festival Orchestra under the incomparable baton of Jaap van Zweden!
