The Peace Concert Versailles
Exactly a century after after the armistice agreement was signed to bring an end to the First World War, on 11 November 2018 conductor Franz Welser-Möst led the Wiener Philharmoniker in a memorial concert at the Versailles Opera House – where the peace treaty was signed in 1919. The concert featured works representing either side of the conflict or otherwise referencing war and piece, and the stellar performers include pianist Yuja Wang.
