Praised for their “tremendous variety of color” (The Strad) and the “cohesion and intonation one might expect from an ensemble twice their age” (Third Coast Review), the American-Canadian-Taiwanese Callisto Quartet has quickly risen to international acclaim as one of the most accomplished quartets of their generation. Since their inception in 2016, the Callisto Quartet has garnered top prizes in nearly every major international chamber music competition. Grand Prize winners of the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition and Second Prize Winners of the Banff International String Quartet Competition, the Callisto Quartet has also taken home prizes from the Bordeaux, Melbourne, and Wigmore Hall competitions.

The Orchestra of St. Luke’s returns to close out the summer season led by the dynamic Xian Zhang. This program reunites the orchestra with world-renowned violinist Gil Shaham, a long-time Caramoor favorite whose numerous appearances here dates back to 1994. The afternoon features Shaham’s definitive interpretation of Barber’s Violin Concerto, a work of inherent sweetness and playfulness. Framed by the wit of Rossini’s L'italiana in Algeri Overture and the majestic architecture of Mozart’s ("Jupiter") Symphony, the concert offers a masterclass in both lyrical intimacy and orchestral grandeur.

Kidnapped by pirates and sold into a harem, Konstanze and Blonde plot their escape. But when hope seems lost, help comes from an unexpected quarter. In Die Entführung aus dem Serail (The Abduction from the Seraglio) Mozart’s colourful score is perfectly matched by David McVicar’s gorgeous, tender staging, set in the sun-filled gardens and shady terraces of an 18th-century palace.

Festival favourite Paul Lewis returns with a programme framed by two of Mozart’s most appealing piano sonatas – one known for its charm and grace, the other for its intensity and restlessness. In between comes music from France – Debussy’s sensual and ecstatic vision of an island ruled by love L’isle joyeuse, and a selection of Poulenc’s more down-to-earth Improvisations – the witty, lyrical vignettes the composer wrote over a period of 27 years, each dedicated to a colleague or friend.

The Heath Quartet, formed at the Royal Northern College of Music in 2002, has enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship with Wigmore Hall and built a devoted following thanks to performances that make creative sparks fly. Its latest programme takes wing with Britten’s 3 Divertimenti, conceived in 1936 as part of Go play, boy, play, a projected suite of character portraits depicting old school chums, and flourishes in two contrasting quartets by Mozart and Robert Schumann.

Ilumina fully lives up to the meaning of its name, which comes from the Portuguese verb ‘to illuminate’ or ‘to enlighten’. Founded in 2015 by violist Jennifer Stumm to offer world-class training and opportunities to talented musicians from disadvantaged backgrounds, the ensemble travels far from its home on an organic coffee farm near Sao Paolo, Brazil to reach the world’s leading concert halls. Only a poet could do justice to the combustible energy, collective commitment and life-enhancing artistry cultivated by Ilumina’s amazing players.

Prokofiev’s merry klezmer romp sets the stage for Timo Andres’ imaginative reframing of a problematic Mozart concerto. Mozart didn’t notate large swaths of the left hand part. Mr. Andres filled in the missing parts as if a live performance was suddenly hijacked by a rogue left hand from the 21 st century, with strange and beautiful results

.Beethoven’s First Symphony, written when he was just 30, may seem traditional when compared to the eight ground-breaking symphonies that followed, but the First was conceived very calculatedly as a calling card to the Vienna establishment. The First was in the best tradition of the late Mozart and Beethoven’s current teacher, Haydn, while demonstrating just enough independence and slightly shocking “modernity” to attract key Viennese patronage. And it still delights, 226 years later!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's masterpiece "The Magic Flute" is one of the most famous, frequently performed, and most attended operas in music history. It is both a classical opera and a singspiel. Mozart's last stage work is known like almost no other opera. For more than two centuries, this musical fairy tale has enchanted audiences with its multifaceted nature. As colorful and vibrant as Mozart's wonderful music is the captivating plot of this opera. At the heart of the story is the power struggle between the Queen of the Night and Sarastro, the high priest of the sun kingdom. In the end, however, the all-conquering power of love and the might of good triumph.

Trio Fadolín is a new ensemble with a unique sonority — featuring Sabina Torosjan on violin, Valeriya Sholokhova on cello, and Ljova, performing on the fadolín – a new instrument that encompasses the range of the violin, viola, and most of the cello, finding its footing in an acoustic chamber music setting for the first time.    In our inaugural season, Trio Fadolín has been presented by Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC) and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We formed during the COVID-19 pandemic — our first performances were in the summer of 2021 on a makeshift at the Javits Convention Center mass vaccination site, operated by the US Army and sponsored by Sing for Hope. As our opportunities to play together grew, our repertoire evolved steadily — it now includes works by Ukrainian composers Vasyl Barvinsky, Mykola Kolessa, and Miroslav Skoryk, Spanish-American composer Andrea Casarrubios, Estonian-American composer Lembit Beecher, folk music from Armenia, Denmark, Sweden and Romania, in addition to original works by our fadolínist, Ljova. All three of us are graduates of The Juilliard School.

The Chapel Restoration

In Mozart’s comic opera The Magic Flute, Prince Tamino embarks on a journey to rescue Pamina, only to discover that the true battle isn’t between people, but between ignorance and understanding. Guided by elements both mystical and spiritual—and joined by the ever-hopeful, always-hungry, bird-catching Papageno as their trusty sidekick—Tamino and Pamina undergo trials of courage, integrity, and resilience. As the Queen of the Night spreads fear and misinformation, the wise Sarastro champions reason, compassion, and community. In a world that often feels divided by noise and uncertainty, The Magic Flute resonates as a timeless and timely tale of seeking truth, choosing empathy over fear, and finding harmony through connection.

An adventurous Prince Tamino is rescued by three mysterious ladies and ordered by their mistress, the vengeful Queen of the Night, to rescue her daughter, Pamina, from the evil Sarastro. Prince Tamino, armed with a magic flute and accompanied by a reluctant bird catcher, Papageno, ventures forth to find the Princess.

Mozart’s sparkling comedy about love, loyalty, and deception takes on new life in an American college setting. Featuring an updated libretto in English by Kelley Rourke, this fresh adaptation directed by Eric Einhorn and conducted by Joseph Colaneri puts human nature to the test in an experiment that soon spins out of control — what happens when the game goes too far? With sharp humor and surprising twists, Così brings a contemporary edge to Mozart’s classic “school for lovers,” asking what women — and men — are really like.

The Alice Busch Opera Theater

A perennial favorite of the operatic canon and the third of W.A. Mozart’s collaborations with his best-known librettist, Lorenzo da Ponte, Così fan tutte showcases the best of both collaborators’ work: humor, intrigue, and a touch of pathos. Così fan tutte continues our investigation of opera as a living form and is part of our ongoing commitment to reimagining operatic language. In this new production, directed by Cate Pisaroni and conducted by Abdiel Vázquez, the familiar tale is reimagined through a polyamorous and design-driven lens—a contemporary exploration of love as process rather than verdict.

Not much more than a wooden shed, its front windows opening onto a lovely valley and distant forests. A stove to protect against the bitter cold, a piano, a chair, a table: This is Gustav Mahler's composing cottage near the idyllic Alpine village of Toblach, where the composer wrote several of his greatest works. The busy conductor, who only took time to compose during his summer holidays, never found the peace he needed here. Pure relaxation before the word was even invented.

Enjoy a behind-the-scenes look as Sir Donald Runnicles and the orchestra rehearse for the weekend Festival Orchestra concerts. This week, beloved Festival Orchestra member José González Granero moves from the woodwind section to the front of the stage to perform Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto, one of the great composer’s last masterpieces. In contrast to Mozart’s meaningful late utterance are two more youthful works by important 20th century icons – a playful literary overture by American Samuel Barber, The School for Scandal Overture, and an incredibly precocious college graduation project by Dmitri Shostakovich, his Symphony No. 1.

The Great Classical Music

"The Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra shines with Mozart," wrote the WAZ newspaper after a "gripping evening of music" in which the Chinese-born New Zealander Tianyi Lu conducted his Requiem. And the young conductor also brought Mozart with her on her return to the orchestra's podium: this time the last of Mozart's five violin concertos. The Salzburg prodigy was not only one of the most gifted composers in music history, but also an outstanding pianist – and violinist. It's no wonder, then, that he put so much effort into the works for "his" instruments. With the Fifth Violin Concerto, he has created a particularly beautiful contribution: the melodies simply flow, the orchestral part is exceedingly rich, and the solo part is highly demanding.

Antonio Salieri is a pious, conscientious man—and the greatest composer in the Austrian Empire. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is a young, foolish show-off—and apparently no threat. Except that Salieri can hear what no one else can: this ridiculous boy is perhaps the greatest musical genius ever to have lived. How can God have played such a trick on Salieri? To reward his devotion by rubbing his nose in his own mediocrity? There is only one possible revenge: God’s beloved, Amadeus, must be destroyed. This story of genius and the price it extracts is one of the greatest and most ravishing experiences in theatrical history.

Mozart’s Symphony No. 32 in G major is one of his shortest contributions to this genre. He probably used it as an overture for the opera La villanella rapita by his Italian contemporary Francesco Bianchi. Mozart contributed not only overtures, but also arias to stage works by other composers. Soprano Claudia Muschio presents two of these together with conductor Lothar Zagrosek, who is once again leading the Stuttgart State Orchestra almost twenty years after his departure as General Music Director. Anton Bruckner was deeply impressed by Mozart’s somnambulistic ability: “I deeply admire Mozart and try to preserve his clarity and beauty in my own work.“ The Austrian Romantic surprised his contemporaries with this confession. Throughout his life, Bruckner was accused of not structuring his compositions clearly enough. As a result, he reworked almost all of his nine symphonies several times. A rare exception is his Seventh, which was immediately well received. Bruckner succeeded in creating an exceptionally balanced work - with impressive themes and dramatic progressions.

West London Chorus celebrates its 50th Anniversary with a concert featuring three of the greatest composers of the 18th century.

In 1707, the 22-year-old Handel was living in Rome, a time when operatic performances were forbidden. That ban in no way precluded his composition of vivid, dramatic music, as is demonstrated by two psalm settings: Nisi Dominus (Psalm 127) and in particular, Dixit Dominus (Psalm 110), whose tremendous energy and exuberant choruses mark it as one of his finest works.

Ferrando and Guglielmo are convinced that their fiancées, Dorabella and Fiordiligi, are faithful to them. The men enter into a bet with Don Alfonso, who intends to prove them wrong with an experiment. But what begins as a harmless game turns into a cruel open-heart experiment... Kirill Serebrennikov's production is radically contemporary; Roberto González-Monjas, chief conductor of the Musikkollegium Winterthur, guides the audience through Mozart's brilliant yet ambiguous score.

The Strad noted how its debut album of works by Haydn and Mendelssohn, released in 2017, ‘instantly leaps out of the stereo at you as something special’.

In the summer of 1782, in his twenties, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart celebrated his greatest opera success yet.

Mozart’s The Marriage of Figaro is a scandalous whirlwind of desire, deception, and defiance set to some of the most exquisite music ever composed. In a single day, clever servants Figaro and Susanna must outwit their lecherous master Count Almaviva, who’s determined to seduce the bride-to-be. As the servants scheme against their social superiors, the opera becomes a thrilling battle of class, desire, and human dignity. Will true love triumph over power and privilege?

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi certainly had no idea that almost three centuries later he would still be one of the most famous composers in the history of music. The successor of the masters of composition of the so-called Venetian school, music teacher and concertmaster in the prestigious orchestra of the Venetian girls' orphanage Ospedale della Pietá, and a renowned instrumentalist throughout Europe, he created over three and a half hundred instrumental concertos. The orchestra of the institution financed by the Venetian Republic was obliged to perform at masses and religious and secular celebrations, several times a month, which is why Vivaldi's creative period was unusually fruitful. Evil tongues claim that he copied individual compositions himself. The largest part of them is, of course, intended for the violin. They demonstrate an exceptionally rich melodic invention and Vivaldi's great feeling for the character of instrumental stylization.

The story of Idomeneo offers all the drama one expects from ancient Greek myth and legend. Cruel fate, gods demanding sacrifice, love in jeopardy, and even a sea serpent: such elements no doubt made it an attractive plot for an ambitious young composer. By the early 1780s Mozart had reached musical maturity, and it shows in the huge range of music in his score, from solemn to sparkling, from lament to jubilation, with a foretaste of the glorious melodies to come in his later operas.

"Buchbinder delivers the best complete Mozart," the web portal Classics Today stated. Mozart now also takes center stage in the celebration of the renowned Austrian pianist's 80th birthday. The CAMERATA will be Rudolf Buchbinder's dialogue partner in three Mozart concertos, which he will conduct from the piano. This is the orchestra that has been intimately connected to the Salzburg master's deeply personal piano concerto output since its beginnings. The ideal conditions, then, for a musical birthday celebration, where sparkling melodic and the clearest structural piano playing meets chamber music sensitivity. Buchbinder, who has been playing the piano for 75 years and giving concerts for 70 years (!), spans the entire world of Mozart's wonderful piano concertos with the CAMERATA, from the early Salzburg Concerto in E-flat major, K. 271, which Mozart composed for the French pianist Louise Victoire Jenamy, to his first minor concerto, K. 466, which already contains the drama of "Don Giovanni," to the great C major concerto, K. 503, which anticipates Beethoven.
