“The health of our visitors and our international ensemble is a top priority for the KlassikFestival,” artistic director Stephan Gartner said on Wednesday in a broadcast. The premiere of Gioachino Rossini’s opera “Il Signor Bruschino” scheduled for this season is to take place on July 31, 2021 instead. “All other performance dates are in line with today’s dates,” said Gartner. Tickets already purchased remain valid, according to the organizer.
However, the three open-air concerts “Symphonic Rock”, “Brass Philharmonic” and “Classical Under Stars” planned for the end of August have not yet been canceled. The director was optimistic that a decision should be made at the end of May.
