German Cellist Jan Vogler at the Moritzburg Festival

Welcome to the programme. Hello.The summer months are very much festival season here in Europe and we begin today near Dresden at the Moritzburg Festival. Since its inception 16 years ago it's established itself as one of the leading chamber music festivals in the world. And if there were any awards for the venues where the concerts are held Moritzburg would win them. The breathtaking backdrop of the moated castle there and its baroque interior is definitely a place for the eyes as well as the ears.
