The Philharmonic presents a dramatic musical concert featuring the influential works from Wagner, Khachaturian, and Strauss. The concert will include pieces from Wagner’s revolutionary operas such as, Tannhäuser, Der fliegende Holländer (The Flying Dutchman), and Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg (The Master-Singers of Nuremberg)– as well as excerpts from Khachaturian’s incidental music for the play Masquerade, and some of his works from the ballet Gayane. The event will conclude with a flourish, with the orchestra performing some of Strauss’ iconic waltzes (Kaiser-Walzer) and polkas (Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka). The Philharmonic will perform under the baton of internationally sought-after session conductor Johannes Vogel for this spectacular evening.
