Concert review: A thrilling evening with ‘Romeo and Juliet’ (in German)

The symphony concert on 23 October received rave reviews: 'Orchestra and soloist played with palpable passion,' wrote Marco Stücklin in Opernmagazin. Under the baton of Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla, concertmaster Friederike Starkloff shone as the soloist in Jean Sibelius' Violin Concerto. Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet crowned the sold-out evening in the Stadtcasino Basel.

NO TO DIVISION

Sinfonieorchester Basel rejects the initiative for musical diversity
The Sinfonieorchester Basel supports the committee 'Der Kulturstadt Basel Sorge tragen' in its rejection of the initiative for musical diversity. The initiative jeopardises existing structures and could threaten the existence of the orchestra. It would also have an impact on Basel's theatre and independent scene. We call for a rejection on 24. November in order to preserve Basel's diverse cultural landscape. Further information: www.nein-zur-spaltung.ch
