– Historically accurate ways of performing –
Baroque expert Brian Dean is giving us the chance to hear the results of his extensive workshops with members of the Frankfurt Opern and Museumsorchester in this closing concert.

What differences are there between early and modern day instruments?
This is what the highly respected specialist Brian Dean, a member of the Freiburg Barockorchesters and a professor in Lucerne has been exploring with members of our orchestra.
