This concert conducted by our Artistic Partner Topi Lehtipuu takes us to the scene of many turning points in the history of music, Vienna – a city that still eternalises the age-old musical traditions even today, with its New Year concerts and carnivals. The musical influence of Vienna stretches far and wide, both geographically and temporarily, for the items on today’s programme have been an inseparable element of our everyday lives and special occasions for decades and even centuries. The soloist is the celebrated French soprano Sandrine Piau, one of the world’s finest Mozart singers, and the Somnium Ensemble is renowned for its compelling performances of the age-old classics. This programme brings Old Vienna to life again in our concert halls!
