October 1: Opening Concert of "OSI al LAC"

Description

With great anticipation, the opening concert of the 2026/2027 season "OSI al LAC" is expected on October 1, featuring the Orchestra della Svizzera italiana conducted by Jérémie Rhorer. The renowned German cellist Maximilian Hornung will perform as a distinguished soloist, in a program ranging from the elegance of Gabriel Fauré's Pavane to the intensity of Dmitri Shostakovich's Cello Concerto No. 2, and the impressive Orpheus by Igor Stravinsky. A journey between light and shadow, echoes of myths and demons, where the music dares to cross the abyss like Orpheus and bring back what seemed lost.
