Stars under the starry sky in the traditional summer night concert! Two of the great voices and one of the best cello virtuosos of our time promise musical fireworks at the Wolkenturm: the South African soprano Pretty Yende and the Maltese tenor Joseph Calleja, both long since celebrated throughout the world of opera, including the Metropolitan Opera New York, as well as the Dutch Cellist Harriet Krijgh, who delights with an irrepressible love of music. These are the prominent guests with whom the Tonkunstler and their chief conductor Yutaka Sado prepare a musical feast for all the senses for the audience in Grafenegg on the summer solstice.
