The Sinfonietta da Camera Salzburg, known for its stylistic diversity and artistic brilliance, guarantees a glamorous concert afternoon that will make the hearts of all classical music lovers beat faster.
More about the artists
Since its founding in 2002, the Sinfonietta da Camera Salzburg has established itself as one of Austria's leading ensembles. With passion and perfection, the orchestra inspires its audiences at home and abroad and is regularly represented at major festivals such as the Salzburg Festival. As the former "Orchestra in Residence" of the Salzkammergut Mozart Festival and now a pillar of the festival "The Sound of Hallstatt", the orchestra is still an important part of Austrian musical culture. At this special concert, the audience will be enchanted by soprano Katharina Gudmundsson, who will also lead through the program as a presenter.
The multi-award-winning soprano will delight with popular arias such as "Mein Herr Marquis" from "Die Fledermaus" and "Meine Lippen, sie küssen so heiß" from Lehár's "Giuditta" and bring the musical works and their backgrounds to life with her charming moderation.
A bouquet of colourful melodies
This year's New Year's Concert is dedicated to the 200th birthday of Johann Strauss Sr. The varied programme includes his most popular waltzes, lively polkas and unforgettable melodies that take the audience on a journey into the musical Vienna of the 19th century. Highlights of the program: - Johann Strauss Sohn: "Roses from the South", "Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka", "Frühlingsstimmen-Walzer" - Franz Lehár: "Gold and Silver", "Meine Lippen, sie küssen so heiß" - Eduard Strauss: "Außer Rand und Band" - Carl Michael Ziehrer: "Wearner Madln" - Final encores: "Ischler Walzer" and "Radetzky-Marsch"
