German conductor Christoph Altstaedt returns to the Orchestra of Opera North for a pair of traditional Viennese Whirl concerts to celebrate New Year, at Huddersfield Town Hall on 30 December and Hull City Hall on New Year’s Eve, 31 December, with soprano Jennifer France as guest soloist.
Christoph sees added cause for celebration in the concerts: “Since the pandemic, I go to concerts much more consciously, and it makes me very happy to share a listening experience with other people and enjoy the music live. These beautiful halls naturally inspire us musicians and give a concert a very festive touch.
“For most of us, 2022 was a year of worry and uncertainty. I think there’s no better way to end it than to say goodbye with a swing and a waltz”.
