Ending this week's celebration of Swiss summer music festivals with highlights from the 2019 festivals in Ticino and Lucerne. From the Ticino DOC Festival, Kevin Griffiths conducts the Orchestra della Svizzera italiana in a concert spotlighting three solo players of the lower-pitched string instruments: viola, cello and double bass.
Then we move to the Lucerne Festival as the Vienna Philharmonic and conductor Andr茅s Orozco-Estrada performs two works by Dvo艡谩k and a concerto for the highest-pitched string instrument: Leonidas Kavakos joins them in Korngold's Violin Concerto.
