Approved

New Year's concerts always have their own character. Every conductor of the past few years put this musical start to the year together in a special way. In this concert, our 1st Kapellmeister Harish Shankar attaches great importance to great and popular sounds, to the opulence of the Meininger Hofkapelle. The prelude is the overture from the operetta "Die Fledermaus" by Johann Strauss, before the soloist of the last symphony concert, Yojo Christen, performs Gershwin's popular "Rhapsody in blue"; Ravel's "La Valse" will conclude the first part. The second part is brisk: after the rousing overture from Glinka's "Ruslan and Lyudmila", Kodály's "Tänze aus Galantha" follows, before the court orchestra begins the finale with Scriabin's "Poème de l'extase".
