Musical Fireworks
The New Year‘s concert with the subtitle Musical Fireworks will offer a colourful range of compositions, from the popular fast polka and Viennese waltz to the diabolic violin and elegiac singing voice of the cello of Philharmonic concertmasters. During the evening, compositions inspired by the fireworks will be performed, too.
