“The program “Trumpet Magic” with Vladislav Lavrik and the soloist ensemble of the Philharmonia Frankfurt promised to be one of the highlights of this year’s festival. Vladislav Lavrik was undoubtedly one of the most successful and sought-after trumpeters of his generation, valued for his unique stage presence, beautiful sound and enormous virtuosity and celebrated by audiences and the press alike. The artist regularly appears on major concert stages around the world and has received numerous international awards. A long friendship and successful artistic collaboration connects the virtuoso with the Philharmonia Frankfurt under the direction of Juri Gilbo, which is now one of the most sought-after European orchestras and is always present on renowned stages throughout Europe.

The matinee program included famous virtuoso classical works, film music, jazz and world music.
