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 Leif Ove Andsnes, Yefim Bronfman, André Watts, Keith Jarrett, Lang Lang, Christian Zacharias, Pierre-Laurent Aimard, Grigory Sokolov, Chick Corea, Boris Berezovsky, Brigitte Engerer, Pierre Hantaï, Andreas Staier, Georges Pludermacher, Lars Vogt, Mikhaïl Pletnev, Kenneth Weiss, Ralf Gothoni, Frank Braley among others.
