The Concertgebouworkest has made its streaming program since June 2020 available free of charge for one month under the name Lockdown Archives. The works performed by the orchestra between June 2020 and June 2021 can be accessed individually at www.concertgebouworkest.nl/en/watch-listen .
Since the first lockdown in the spring of 2020, the Concertgebouworkest has streamed over eighty compositions in more than forty productions – including thirty-four orchestral programs. The orchestral players performed at a distance of over one and a half meters from one another and usually in an otherwise empty hall, but with an impressive line-up of conductors. There were also many chamber music productions.
The Lockdown Archives show conductors like Semyon Bychkov, Myung-Whun Chung, Gustavo Dudamel, Ivan Fischer, Alan Gilbert, Daniel Harding, Philippe Herreweghe, Fabio Luisi, Andris Nelsons, Gianandrea Noseda and Jaap van Zweden, pianists Stefano Bollani, Yefim Bronfman, Kirill Gerstein, Igor Levit, Víkingur Ólafsson and Beatrice Rana, and vocal soloists Miah Persson, Camilla Tilling, Andrew Staples, Matthias Goerne and Georg Nigl.
