Germany : Baroque and Classical

We are kicking the festival off with a HUGE splash, performing in the Drill Hall of Base 31, featuring 3 internationally renowned soloists performing famous and beloved Bach concertos. BIGLAKE is especially pleased to be presenting pianist Tony Yike Yang, one of the world’s foremost pianists of the younger generation and youngest ever prize-winner (age 16!) of the Chopin International Piano Competition. This concert will end with a rarely performed string orchestra version of Beethoven’s revolutional Symphony No. 5. This concert is one musical firecracker after another, and we promise it will rock you out of the park!
