ABOUT THIS CONCERT

The Lucerne Festival Orchestra, founded in 2003 by Claudio Abbado (1933-2014), is comprised of acclaimed soloists, chamber musicians and music professors, with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra at its core. 

The orchestra unites every summer in the Swiss city of Lucerne and gathers again in autumn to tour together. Previous years have brought the Lucerne Festival to Paris, Vienna, Hamburg, Rome, London, New York, Moscow, Tokyo, Beijing and other international capitals. 

This year, the Lucerne Festival Orchestra returns to Asia with two different programmes, which will be performed over seven concerts under the baton of Music Director Riccardo Chailly. In this concert, the Lucerne Festival Orchestra and Music Director Riccardo Chailly perform an all-Strauss programme, dedicated to three of the composer’s most acclaimed tone poems, which opened this year’s Lucerne Festival.

This concert marks the MCO’s first return to Kyoto since 2006.
