Lucerne Festival
WHAT DISTINGUISHES THIS FESTIVAL
Every year, Lucerne becomes a meeting place for leading performers from all over the globe. Famous orchestras, legendary conductors, virtuoso soloists—and of course the Lucerne Festival Orchestra as well as the students of the Lucerne Festival Academy—convene to celebrate a festival of Sound.
FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS
Tutto nel mondo è burla (all the world's a joke) declares Verdi in his last opera Falstaff. But when was the last time you laughed in the concert hall? Lucerne Festival will explore the theme of "Humor" to show how witty and entertaining so-called "serious" classics can be. Experience world-famous orchestras, legendary conductors, and virtuoso soloists, from Daniel Barenboim to Simon Rattle and Christian Thielemann, from the Berlin Philharmonic to the Vienna Philharmonic.
