The Eye Cinema in Wellpark has announced a live broadcast of the traditional New Year’s Eve Concert from the Berliner Philharmoniker Orchestra on Sunday, December 31 at 4pm.
Tenor Jonas Kaufman will perform ‘Siegmund’ from Richard Wagner’s Walküre. The world-renowned tenor is passionate, radiant and combative in his portrayal of the tragic hero at the centre of a love triangle that confronts us with the emotional extremes of revenge, incest and lover’s bliss.
To celebrate the end of the year, chief conductor Kirill Petrenko, an acclaimed interpreter of Wagner, conducts the first act of the opera at the Berliner Philharmoniker’s New Year’s Eve Concert, broadcasting live. The programme opens with excerpts from Tannhäuser that encapsulate the grandeur of Wagner’s great work.
Early arrival and booking is strongly advised for this one-night-only event.
