VIENNA PHILHARMONIC
SUMMER NIGHT CONCERT 2013
FRIDAY, AUGUST 16 @ 7:00PM & 12:00AM
The outdoor concert in the magnificent baroque gardens of Imperial Schönbrunn Palace is free to thousands of attendees in Vienna, and serves the orchestra’s objective of making classical music accessible to a broad spectrum of concertgoers beyond its usual, core audience. The concert was record.
From Verdi comes the triumphal march from “Aida,” the overtures to “La Forza del Destino” as well as “La mia letizia infondere” from “I Lombardi.” The Wagner selections include the Grail Narrative from “Lohengrin” and music from his operas “The Mastersingers of Nuremberg,” “Tristan and Isolde,” and “Die Walküre.”
