Celebrating 30 years in North America, Salute to Vienna New Year’s Concert returns to New Brunswick for a dazzling anniversary season. This beloved annual tradition is an unmissable addition to every music-lover’s holiday wish list. At the heart of Salute to Vienna is the richly festive, romantic, and soul-stirring music of Johann Strauss, Jr. Mark the 200th anniversary of the famed composer’s birth with a selection of soaring overtures, arias, and duets that capture the essence of Vienna’s Golden Age, including “The Blue Danube” waltz. With a charming expert in Viennese music at the conductor’s podium, Strauss’ timeless music bursts to life in performances by some of Europe’s finest singers, internationally acclaimed dancers, and a full orchestra. With elegant costumes, bright floral designs, and even a joke or two from the conductor, this cherished tradition is the perfect way to waltz into the new year. Artists subject to change without notice.
