PORTRAITS OF THE VERBIER FESTIVAL CHAMBER ORCHESTRA

Released on our joint label Verbier Festival Gold, Portraits of the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra, Vol. 1 is the first of a series of upcoming albums that highlights the extraordinary chemistry between the ensemble and their beloved Music Director, Hungarian chamber music legend Gábor Takács-Nagy. This first album opens and closes with exciting interpretations of Haydn’s final 104th and Schumann’s 3rd “Rhenish” symphonies.  It further features a sensational rendition of Beethoven’s Second Piano Concerto with frequent VFCO collaborator and close friend of the festival Martha Argerich. And there is also room for a Scarlatti encore from the iconic pianist.
