| Wolkenturm, Grafenegg, Grafenegg, Austria Saturday 7-Sep-13 07:00pm Munich Philharmonic Orchestra Vive la France! The whole day in Grafenegg is dedicated to French music and joie de vivre. The Prelude will set a cheerful mood with Camille Saint- Saëns’ «Carnival of the Animals». Played by the brothers Kutrowatz and narrated by the legendary entertainer and professionally trained pianist Herbert Feuerstein, both young and old will enjoy this classic. Afterwards, the Munich Philharmonic under Semyion Bychkov will present some of the most famous composers of the Grande Nation on the Wolkenturm: look forward to works by Maurice Ravel, Francis Poulenc and César Franck. Katia and Marielle Labèque will be adding a very personal French touch. | ||

| Carnegie Hall: Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage, New York City, NY, New York City, NY, United States Friday 11-Apr-14 08:00pm Munich Philharmonic Orchestra Hailed by The New York Times for its “energetic, richly colored and insightful … music making,” the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra returns to Carnegie Hall, led by Lorin Maazel. The all-Strauss program includes the mercurial Burleske with legendary pianist Emanuel Ax and Also sprach Zarathustra—now some of the most recognizable music ever written, thanks to Stanley Kubrick’s mind-bending sci-fi film 2001: A Space Odyssey. | ||
