A festival with three concerts, compressed into a single day.
Here, music of the Renaissance meets outstanding compositions of the 20th century. In iconic works by Ravel, Debussy, and Gershwin, Parisian sophistication collides with the hot rhythms of Broadway.
World-class soloists such as Jean-Guihen Queyras, Kirill Gerstein, and the Quatuor Diotima, under the direction of Oscar Jockel, provide brilliance and fire.
