Description:

As a summer resort, Switzerland was visited by various composers and performers, and in August 1938, a gala concert conducted by Toscanini was held in front of Wagner's residence on the shores of Lake Lucerne. Since then, numerous music festivals and seminars have been held, attracting many music fans. Of course, there are music festivals with famous performers, but most of them are held with their own unique concepts, such as fostering young artists, contemporary music, and a place to introduce rarely performed works and composers. This 13-CD box collects live recordings from recent concerts (2003-2016) at festivals such as Lucerne, Verbier, Gstaad, Locarno, Ascona, Solisberg, Davos, and Ernen, which have made their mark in Switzerland's many, many summer music festivals They are.
