European Tour 2010 - Lucerne Festival, Schumann & Chopin

"We have special memories of the Feast of Wine and Music tour of 2006, when in Ljubljana, the brilliant young French pianist, Emmanuel Despax, gave two superb performances, including the Schumann Symphonic Etudes Op 13 and some inspiring and exquisite Mozart. Also here, Roma played the Mozart Piano Quartet in g minor, K 478, with the Ljubljana String Trio. This tour, escorted by well known wine identity, Christopher Barnes AM, of the Hunter Valley, found us travelling from Strasbourg along the Route des Vins and visiting several famous wineries and vineyards in the Alsace and Burgundy as well as staying in the luxurious Burgundian Chateau de Gilly. A memorable tour indeed!"
Judy and Gordon Cope-Williams, Romsey, Victoria, Australia
“I've had the pleasure of several Lingua Musica tours, always a true delight for both mind and soul. Expert information throughout the journey brings to life the sights and cultures. Each location becomes a memorable experience, not just a visit.”

Highlights of our tour this year include the Lucerne Festival, one of the most prestigious classical and contemporary music events in Europe. Attracting more than 110,000 visitors, it’s a favourite for Lingua Musica because of high quality performances in magnificent settings.

The 2010 Lucerne Festival offers a variety of performances, including the San Francisco Symphony (conductor Michael Tilson Thomas), the Bolshoi Theatre and Chorus, and the Vienna Philharmonic (conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt).

The tour travels on to Berlin for concerts, opera, great galleries and a day trip to beautiful Potsdam. We then join the bicentennial celebrations of Robert Schumann in the wonderful city of Leipzig, important for its connections with J.S Bach, Robert and Clara Schumann, Felix Mendelssohn, Johannes Brahms, Franz Liszt and great literary connections with Goethe, Schiller et al, where we also include a full-day excursion from Leipzig to Weimar, including lunch in Goethe’s favourite inn.
