The global success of Vienna's New Year's Eve and New Year's concerts stems from the combination of several essential elements: an excellent orchestra, a hit program, a magnificent golden concert hall, and television broadcast. Although there will probably be no television broadcast this evening at the Szczecin Philharmonic, the other three elements will certainly be present. We invite you to a warm welcome of the New Year in the rhythm of, among others, hits of Spanish music.
This evening, however, there will be a fourth, completely exceptional element. During this concert, the percussion section of the Szczecin Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra will celebrate its 35th anniversary of uninterrupted activity in the same lineup, which includes: Dariusz JagieÅÅo, Jorge Luis Valcarcel Gregorio, Jacek Wierzchowski, and Bogdan Pilak.
It is no coincidence that we will welcome the New Year with hot rhythms. The program will include timeless works of Spanish music and music inspired by Spain, including Alborada del gracioso by Ravel, which the composer managed to win the heart of the unkind writer Romain Rolland; the famous Dance from the opera La vida breve by Falla â a piece full of passion and captivating rhythms, referring to the traditions of Andalusian flamenco; and Aragon from the Spanish Suite by Albéniz â representing a kind of musical tug-of-war between the soloist and the orchestra, culminated by a frenetic coda. However, no Spanish concert will be complete without the most famous of all works inspired by Iberia, even though created by a Frenchman. We are, of course, talking about the phenomenal Suite from the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet, of which fragments we will present this evening. This time, however, you will hear it in a somewhat different version â arranged for string orchestra and percussion by Rodion Shchedrin.
But this evening we will not only be warmed by Spanish rhythms. We will also listen to the Roman Carnival Overture by Berlioz â a truly showpiece orchestral work beloved not only by music lovers but also by orchestral musicians, especially those playing brass instruments. The Italian rhythms of the Artists' Quadrille by Strauss (Son). Just like in the case of his famous waltz On the Beautiful Blue Danube, this waltz is a joyful reflection of the Viennese carnival. There will also be the Brazilian hit by Zequinha de Abreu â Tico tico. The catchy, decidedly syncopated rhythm of this piece has a charm that cannot be resisted.
Thus, the celebration of the New Year can only be found at the Philharmonic.
