ABOUT THE PRODUCTION

We are sorry to inform you that Martha Argerich has been forced to cancel her appearance with the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra (II) with Daniel Barenboim tomorrow, Thursday, August 11, due to a sudden illness.

We are delighted that Daniel Barenboim is willing to play the solo part instead. Instead of the previously announced Piano Concerto by Franz Liszt, he will perform the Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in B-flat major K. 595 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
