VIENNESE REGAL - EXTRAORDINARY CHRISTMAS CONCERT

14 December 2024, 17:30

Ion Besoiu Cultural Center, Sibiu

INSTRUMENTALISTS FROM TWO FAMOUS ORCHESTRAS IN EUROPE

ORCHESTRA DI TEATRO D’OPERA ITALIANA, one of the most renowned orchestras in Europe, has been applauded on major opera and philharmonic stages around the world. It is enough to recall a few traditional scenes: Brucknerhaus Linz (Linz Philharmonic), Bregenz Festspielhaus (Bregenz Philharmonic), Brunnenhof der Residenz Munchen (Munich Imperial Palace), Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Stadthalle Vienna, Meistersingershalle Nurnberg, Kasemattenbuehne Graz, etc.

The recognition of the orchestra is also given by collaborations with great names in the world of opera, soloists and conductors from the Arena in Verona, Teatro Scala in Milan, Teatro dell'Opera in Rome, Vienna State Opera, etc.

Members of the Orchestra di Teatro D’Opera Italiana 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 top European orchestras come together to offer the public memorable evenings and unique musical experiences.

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

ROMANIAN CONDUCTOR WITH INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION AND SOLO VIOLINIST INVITED ON ALL MAJOR STAGES OF THE WORLD

The musical direction of the show will be ensured by the young conductor and solo violinist BOGDAN COSTACHE, thus the invited soloists and instrumentalists from Vienna, Italy, Switzerland, Germany will perform under the baton of one of the most talented orchestra leaders of the young generation, 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 soon. Thus, the show will be an interactive one, conducted "with the violin in hand" following the model of JOHANN STRAUSS or, more recently, ANDRE RIEU.

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

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

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

Beautiful Christmas Carols and Songs will shine through the voices of the OPERA VOX CHOIR. This year, you will also enjoy our traditional Romanian Christmas 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 can't make it to the Christmas and New Year concerts in Vienna, we bring the Viennese spirit to your town through the most beautiful Viennese musical masterpieces of the Strauss dynasty, Franz Lehar, Emmerich Kalman, and many, many other musical and choreographic surprises.

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

Every year we surprise you with a new repertoire, special guests, and spectacular choreography, making each VIENNESE REGAL a memorable one!
