Augustin Hadelich | Mark O'Connor | Maggie O'Connor
In 2024, the acclaimed artist Augustin Hadelich presented his adopted homeland with his award-winning album American Road Trip, dedicating himself not only to classical sounds but also to genres such as jazz and ragtime, country and bluegrass music. "When I came to the USA over 20 years ago, I immediately fell in love with the country—and with its music, which is also a melting pot," says Hadelich. He demonstrates just how much America's musical diversity has become second nature to him with his Fiddle Night in Lucerne. For this event, he has invited two giants of the folk scene: Maggie and Mark O'Connor. Mark O'Connor has already won the coveted Grammy three times, one of them jointly with his wife. He has been named Musician of the Year seven times by the Country Music Association. Collaborating with classical stars is nothing new for him – but the O'Connors will be sharing the stage with Augustin Hadelich for the first time. And they'll prove what Leonard Bernstein already knew: "There is neither serious nor entertaining music. There is only good and bad music."
Performers:
Augustin Hadelich, violin;
Mark O'Connor, violin, guitar, and mandolin;
Maggie O'Connor, violin.
Program:
The program will be announced at a later date.
This concert has no intermission.
CHF 50.00.
