Gstaad Festival Amateur Orchestra – Concert ID:
Gstaad Academy – Concert for All
Sunday, 03. August 2025
11:30 a.m., Gstaad Festival Tent
For the 16th edition of the Amateur Orchestra Week, the Gstaad Festival Amateur Orchestra will once again tackle repertoire rarely performed by non-professional groups – this time, Gustav Mahler’s “Titan”. Last summer, this monumental piece left a lasting impression when performed by the London Symphony Orchestra under Sir Antonio Pappano. The Gstaad Festival Amateur Orchestra provides a wonderful chance to make music with fellow musicians from around the world, attend concerts at the Gstaad Menuhin Festival and explore the stunning Saanenland together. The week will be led by Kevin Griffiths and his team of professional section leaders
