“Art is not, after all, a pretty add-on – it is the umbilical cord which connects us to the divine; it guarantees our identity as humans.”

Four vocal stars and a favourite song pianist, well known to us all, who always has a few surprises up his sleeve, have agreed to celebrate the composer. Alongside several four-part pieces from his late works, everyone has been asked to offer their take on Haydn. This could range from the composer’s beautiful English canzonettas, his early songs or the cantata ‘Arianna a Naxos’ to Udo Jürgens, Elton John or Nina Hagen. We can look forward to an exciting and, at times, humorous start to the festival.
