Music Festival

Dear Music Friends,

We have left »Russlandia« behind. Many great musical moments and wonderful encounters will remain with us. Our homepage reflects some of the highlights, and we invite you to share them with us: Please feel free to review the pictures and remember the 2010 Festival fondly.

In order to thank you for the great reception in 2010 and to ease the waiting for the coming season, the next concert highlight is already scheduled for October 20, 2010. That evening at 8pm, the Singapore Symphony Orchestra under the baton of chief conductor Lan Shui is going to perform in the bright inner courtyard of the recently opened Albertinum in Dresden.

I wish you, dear visitors, partners and supporters, a good introduction to the coming season. I am looking forward to present you the complete program of the next Festival (May 18 to June 5, 2011) mid-October.

Yours sincerly
Jan Vogler
[Intendant]

Favorite tunes on CD

In 2007, Jan Vogler had already recorded some of his favored pieces for his album »My Tunes«, with music ranging from Bach to Mancini. For »My Tunes 2«, the cellist has again chosen some popular melodies, and did another recording together with the Dresdner Kapellsolisten for Sony Classical. This new album focuses on the »human voice« of the cello, including dreamy opera arias and songs by Gluck, Mendelssohn-Bartholdy and Wagner, but also »Oblivion« by tango-king Astor Piazzolla. »My Tunes 2« is available in stores and in our online shop from June 18.
