Dirndl-mania, 2013 |

quietly confident that I should find a few things to enjoy from the following:

works by Beethoven and Schoenberg

Denoke, ORF SO/Metzmacher; dir. Konwitschny)

Divan Orchestra/Barenboim: works by Debussy, Boulez, and Tchaikovsky
13 August – Fidelio (Kaufmann, Pieczonka,
VPO/Welser-Möst; dir. Guth)
14 August – West-Eastern
Divan Orchestra/Barenboim: works by Beethoven and Schoenberg
14 August – Mackie Messer – Eine Salzburger
Dreigroschenoper (arr. Martin Lowe; dir. Julian Crouch and Sven-Eric
