The special Dresden concert in commemoration of Franz Liszt's bicentenary!

"This intensive, high-class appreciation of Liszt met with tumultuous applause." Dresdner Neueste Nachrichten

"A top orchestra and a top conductor have found one another."

Under the musical direction of their chief conductor designate, Christian Thielemann, the Staatskapelle Dresden performed this special concert to celebrate Franz Liszt and his bicentenary. At its home, the prestigious Semperoper in Dresden, the orchestra presented a Faust-themed concert with two works by Wagner and Liszt inspired by Goethe's drama.

"Fired up by inspiration, the Dresden musicians and their leader offer a superb demonstration of their ability, their precision and their feeling for colour and temperament... A top orchestra and a top conductor have found each other" (Die Welt).
