VIENNESE REGAL - EXTRAORDINARY CHRISTMAS CONCERT

December 16, 2024, 8:00 PM

Romanian National Opera Timisoara

MUSICIANS FROM TWO FAMOUS ORCHESTRAS IN EUROPE

ORCHESTRA DI TEATRO D’OPERA ITALIANA, one of the most renowned orchestras in Europe, has been applauded on the great opera and philharmonic stages worldwide. We need only mention a few traditional stages: Brucknerhaus Linz (Linz Philharmonic), Bregenz Festspielhaus (Bregenz Philharmonic), Brunnenhof der Residenz Munich (Imperial Palace in Munich), Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Vienna Stadthalle, Meistersingershalle Nuremberg, Kasemattenbuehne Graz, etc.

The orchestra's recognition is also marked by collaborations with great names in the world of opera, soloists, and conductors from the Verona Arena, La Scala Theater in Milan, Rome Opera House, Vienna State Opera, etc.

Members of the Teatro D’Opera Italiana Orchestra are joined by instrumental artists from the ORCHESTRA OPEREI VOX, known and appreciated both nationally and internationally. It is a new concept in Romania when instrumental artists from two of Europe's leading orchestras team up to offer the audience memorable evenings and unique musical experiences.

Moreover, this year, both orchestras have been invited as official orchestras to the largest opera festival in Asia, "Borneo Opera Festival," by the government of Malaysia.

ROMANIAN CONDUCTOR WITH INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION AND VIOLIN SOLOIST INVITED ON ALL THE MAJOR STAGES OF THE WORLD

The musical direction of the show will be provided by the young conductor and violin soloist BOGDAN COSTACHE, thus, the invited soloists and instrumentalists from Vienna, Italy, Switzerland, and Germany, will perform under the baton of one of the most talented young orchestra conductors, born in Romania! The presence of BOGDAN COSTACHE in this year's VIENNESE REGAL program is due to you, the audience, who already adore him so much and have been impressed by his performance, wishing to see him again as soon as possible. Thus, the show will be interactive, conducted “with the violin in hand” following the model of JOHANN STRAUSS or, more recently, ANDRE RIEU.

  As in the show "Three 3 Italian Tenors," in which you enjoyed the beautiful pieces played on the violin by BOGDAN COSTACHE, even in the VIENNESE REGAL, we have prepared many solo surprises performed on the violin, along with the orchestra, by BOGDAN!

THE SHOW WILL BE COMPLETED BY THE CHORUS AND BALLET OF OPERA VOX

The members of the orchestra will be joined by the OPERA VOX BALLET ENSEMBLE, with the much-anticipated moments of waltzes, polkas, can-can, in an effervescent and engaging choreography, so that you will be invited to dance by our orchestras and dancers themselves, through the famous “Alles Walzer!”

The beautiful Carols and Christmas Songs will shine through  the voices of the OPERA VOX CHORUS. And this year, you will also enjoy our traditional Romanian carols.

The Viennese atmosphere and spirit will captivate you from the moment you enter the concert hall and will remain in your heart as a vivid memory for the upcoming Christmas and New Year. If you cannot attend the Christmas and New Year concerts in Vienna, we bring the Viennese spirit to your city with the most beautiful Viennese musical masterpieces of the  Strauss dynasty, Franz Lehár, Emmerich Kálmán, and many, many more musical and choreographic surprises.

The invited soloists from Austria, Italy, and Switzerland will be presented in the following weeks, so that the surprises keep coming!

Every year, we surprise you with a new repertoire, special new guests, and spectacular choreographies so that each VIENNESE REGAL remains memorable!
