On Au­gust 15, audi­ences had the op­por­tun­ity to spend an en­tire day with the West-East­ern Di­van Or­ches­tra at the Moz­ar­teum dur­ing 2007 Salzburg Fest­iv­al. The con­certs fea­ture young mu­si­cians and Daniel Bar­en­boim to­geth­er wih well-known artists and in many dif­fer­ent form­a­tions in a var­ied pro­gram. For Strav­in­sky’s “L’His­toire du Sold­at”, Patrice Chéreau is the nar­rat­or; and Wal­traud Mei­er, Dorothea Röschmann and Thomas Hampson sing for the cause of peace­ful co­ex­ist­ence that day.
