ARTISTS

  • La Philharmonica

    (C) Lukas Beck

    Six outstanding musicians from the ranks of the Vienna Philharmonic have come together in an extraordinary formation that combines string and woodwind instruments in an exciting way. What unites them is their common roots in the great orchestral tradition of the world-famous orchestra - but their artistic aspirations go far beyond that. Their repertoire ranges from classical Viennese dance music, performed with a fine sense of elegance and verve, to selected jewels of opera literature and musical border crossings into the world of film music. The six musicians not only perform well-known works in captivating arrangements, but also surprise with new compositions written especially for them, which show the ensemble in all its tonal versatility.

    "La Philharmonica" combines Viennese sound culture with the highest virtuosity, elegance with the joy of playing, tradition with curiosity for new things. The result is an unmistakable style that delights both connoisseurs and new audiences and makes every performance a lively experience.
