The star-studded concert cycle of Sinfonietta Cracovia is back and it shines as bright as ever! On 30 October at the Gallery of 20th-century Polish Art at Sukiennice (the Cloth Hall), the orchestra performs under the baton of Lena-Lisa Wüstendörfer!
In the frames of the cycle Sinfonietta with Stars, the Swiss conductor and Cracovian ensemble perform Edvard Grieg’s Holberg Suite, Symphony No. 2 in D major for strings and trumpet penned by Arthur Honegger and Grażyna Bacewicz’s Concerto for string orchestra.
Born in Zurich in 1983, Lena-Lisa studied violin and conducting at Basel Conservatory, as well as musicology and economics at Basel University. She deepened her studies with Sylvia Caduff and Sir Roger Norrington and was assistant conductor to Claudio Abbado.
As the Music Director of the Swiss Orchestra, Artistic Director of the Bern Bach Choir and from 2022, Artistic Director of Andermatt Music festival, she is fast building a reputation as a conductor of meticulous technique, contagious passion and rare intellectual insight.
