The finale for this years Lucerne Festival in Summer couldnt be more colourful. Gustavo Dudamel and the Vienna Philharmonic will frame their concluding concert with the sound of drums. Rossinis fizzy Overture to The Thieving Magpie begins with a snare drum solo, while Ravels famous Boléro is based on a metrical pattern played unrelentingly by this instrument, which builds into a flagrantly erotic wave of energy.
