About the Event
Welcome the new year with the New Year's Concert of the Berlin Orchestra at French Cathedral, an atmospheric musical journey through Baroque, Classical and Romantic masterpieces. In the historic setting of Gendarmenmarkt, the orchestra brings warmth and brilliance to Johann Pachelbel’s Canon & Gigue, Mozart’s graceful Salzburger Symphonie KV 136 and Händel’s lyrical Largo from Xerxes. Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons brings seasonal color with Spring and Winter, while highlights from Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker gain distinctive character in an organ arrangement. The program continues with the radiant “He Shall Feed His Flock” from Händel’s Messiah, Widor’s thrilling Toccata from Symphony No. 5 and the cherished seasonal hymn Adeste Fideles. Schubert’s Ave Maria offers a serene, moving finale.
