Which work would be more suitable to tune into the upcoming New Year than Georg Friedrich Handel's grandiose “Music for the Royal Fireworks”? But the Champions League anthem “Zadok the Priest” and the festive “Ode for St. Cecilia’s Day” will also enrich our homage to the composer from nearby Halle an der Saale, along with virtuosic opera arias featuring Miriam Sabba and a concert for chamber organ and orchestra, played by district cantor Carsten Mieseler. It is a particular honor and pleasure to collaborate on this New Year's Eve concert with the choir of Dr. Carl Hermann Gymnasium and the Schönbeck choir. Halleluja!
