The Macao Orchestra, under the auspices of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, presents the annual “Starry Vienna – New Year Concert”, to be held on Sunday, 8 January 2017, at 8pm, at the Macao Cultural Centre Grand Auditorium. All music fans are welcome to join this delightful musical feast with their loved ones on this festive time of the year. Tickets are now available at the Macau Ticketing Network.
Last year, the Macao Orchestra premiered the New Year Concert in Viennese style, bringing the traditional New Year Concert from Vienna, the capital of Austria, to Macao’s stage. In a festive atmosphere full of cheerful notes, the audience felt as if they were in an actual concert in Vienna. This year, the Macao Orchestra invited again the conductor Bruno Weil, who has been active in Austria, to render an elegant, refined and delightful concert in Viennese style.
This year’s concert features a number of masterpieces by Johann Strauss II and Johann Strauss I, including the Pizzicato Polka, among others, as well as other pieces of festive music such as the Gold and Silber waltz by Franz Lehár and the Overture to Light Cavalry by Franz von Suppé, announcing the commencement of the new year with a high quality concert.
Tickets for the concert “Starry Vienna – New Year Concert” are now on sale at the Macau Ticketing Network and are priced at MOP 400, MOP 350, MOP 250 and MOP 150 and there are various discount packages available.
