A treat for all the senses at the magnificent, historic Grandhotel Giessbach 1875 overlooking Lake Brienz—including overnight accommodations, a hearty breakfast, and a delicious three-course meal.
A program rich in timbres combines grand opera and symphonic works in sophisticated arrangements: Rossini’s lively overture to *The Barber of Seville* opens with wit and esprit, followed by Strauss’s dazzling *Rosenkavalier* suite, full of waltz-like bliss. Mozart’s dramatic Symphony in G minor, K. 550, unfolds with intense expressiveness, while Schubert’s German Dances bring a charming lightness. The colorful finale is Borodin’s rousing Polovtsian Dances—a varied evening full of elegance, verve, and chamber-music finesse.
