Playlist: 20 Years Lucerne Festival Orchestra

In the summer of 2003, Claudio Abbado and Festival Director Michael Haefliger founded a unique "Orchestra of Friends" that unites internationally acclaimed soloists, chamber musicians, and music teachers, as well as members of top European orchestras: the Lucerne Festival Orchestra. Riccardo Chailly has been its principal conductor since 2016.

Our latest playlist at Idagio brings together highlights from the Lucerne Festival Orchestra's 20 years of recording.
