The Girl from Ipanema: Grafenegg Summer Concerts

Over het evenement

How about a day trip to Brazil? Go on a journey to a world of rhythm and exuberance. You will be joined on board by the Tonkünstler Orchestra accompanied by numerous musical friends: pianist Benjamin Taubkin and bossa nova singer Tatiana Parra, the Vienna‐based Brazilian guitarist Alegre Corrêa and Markus Poschner at the baton. Enjoy works by Villa‐Lobos, Ravel and Benjamin Taubkin.

There’s a special feeling in the air when you step through the gates of Grafenegg to plunge into the open atmosphere of these Summer Concerts. Here is a fascinating combination of past and future, tangible in the contrast between the old castle and the modern open‐air stage, Wolkenturm. On mild summer evenings, performances are in the open; in poor weather, the Auditorium opens its doors.
