Tucked away in the Lubéron between Marseilles and Avignon, a region best known for its Cavaillon melons, the twenty-year-old Festival de La Roque d'Anthéron has emerged as the major European summer venue for pianists. Blessed with a million-dollar budget, the latest outdoor acoustical installation and affordable ticket prices, visitors can enjoy world-class performances in a natural park setting. This year's festival features recitals by distinguished keyboard artists such as Evgueni Kissin, Chick Corea, Piotr Anderszewski, Alain Planès, Christian Zacharias, Nelson Freire, Grigory Sokolov, Abdel Rahman El Bacha, Herbie Hancock, Deszö Ranki, Boris Berezovsky, Nikolaï Lugansky, Arcadi Volodos, Brigitte Engerer, Pierre Hantaï, Marie-Josephe Jude, Nicholas Angelich, Mikhaïl Pletnev, Lars Vogt, Roger Muaro, Paul Lewis among others.
