Humour is a must! And so you will have no lack of humour in the New Year, our Czech Philharmonic gala New Year’s Day and New Year’s Eve concerts will end with a scherzo based on Goethe’s ballad, in which a sorcerer’s apprentice unsuccessfully attempts to tame the mops he has magically brought to life.
And before that?
To boost your confidence going into 2027, the ‘Jewellery Aria’ from Gounod’s Faust will urge you on as we witness how Marguerite, performed by soprano Simona Šaturová, admires her own reflection in the mirror…
…and we will see how Aminta from Mozart’s opera Il re pastore sings about the love in which he finds peace.
Take inspiration for peace and harmony from the Meditation in Act II of the opera Thaïs by Jules Massenet…
In short, may your entire life be as lively and joyful as a Fritz Kreisler allegro!
