Zurich Barock
Ten days of Baroque immersion at the opera
In March, Zurich aims to become the world capital of early music: shortly before Easter, from March 20 to 29, the new festival “Zürich Barock” will celebrate its first edition. Created by Matthias Schulz, director of the city’s Opera House, the event–featuring international headliners such as Philippe Jaroussky, Cecilia Bartoli, Max Emanuel Cenčić, and Raphaël Pichon–promises to be one of the highlights of the season. Matthias Schulz offers us an overview of this new format, which he envisions as distinctly international.
