Programme
This year’s New Year concert opens with the Chinese classic Spring Festival Overture, followed by Johann Strauss II’s Wein, Weib und Gesang, a light-hearted waltz which embodies the effervescent spirit of a festive celebration. The energy grows higher with the vibrant rhythms and passionate melodies of Falla’s Siete canciones populares españolas and Bizet’s Carmen. Haydn’s Farewell Symphony offers a poignant nod to the departing year with its surprising and witty finale. Ravel’s Boléro begins with a simple theme, masterfully layering orchestral textures into a hypnotic, magnificent crescendo, in anticipation of an exciting new year.
