The renowned Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, under the conduct of maestro Kirill Petrenko, is set to captivate audiences around Europe this New Year's Eve. Beaming live from Berlin's Philharmonie, this grand event will grace the screens of approximately 350 cinemas across the continent.
The central piece of their program is none other than the enthralling first act of "Die Walküre," a portion of Richard Wagner's "Ring des Nibelungen," which showcases an unusual blend of love, albeit of an incestuous nature. Eager performers, tenor Jonas Kaufmann (as Siegmund), soprano Vida Miknevičiūtė (Sieglinde), and bass Georg Zeppenfeld (Hunding), will breathe new life into these timeless compositions.
The concert will also showcase iconic pieces directly from Wagner's "Tannhäuser," featuring an overture and "Der Venusberg." Prepare for an unforgettable musical experience on New Year's Eve, punctuated by international music fans joining the celebration in Berlin.
As of now, information regarding participating cinemas is yet to be disclosed. With the concert's fast-approaching date, we hope that details about the cinemas screening this magnificent production will be revealed soon.
