10–30 August 2009: Murten Classics Summer Festival
Classical music in the castle courtyard
Murten Classics, 10–30 August 2009
The Murten Classics Summer Festival, which is dedicated to the classical concert repertory, has been taking place in the picturesque town of Murten for over 20 years. Thanks to the organisers' competent and conscientious commitment, it has evolved into a respected and recognised music festival, which now lasts three weeks and during this time literally makes the walls of this medieval town resound.
