Johann Strauss Ensemble and Russel McGregor - Vienna Magic
The Viennese from the Johann Strauss Ensemble come back to Romania for the 8th year in a row.
Applauded in Paris, London or New York, the famous Viennese orchestra Johann Strauss Ensemble returns to our country for the 8th year in a row for a tour which will cross Romania from West to East. As a premiere a Romanian soloist, the excellent cellist Adrian Naidin, will play by their side. From Strauss and Lehar, to Beethoven, Haydn, Mozart or Schubert, the journey - in waltz, polka or mazurka steps - will be guided by the extraordinary Russel McGregor, conductor of the Schönbrunn Palace orchestra from Vienna. He is a virtuoso violinist and a real showman. By being inventive he manages to insert in his shows a part of the old tradition, established by Vienna's great "star" himself, the composer Johann Strauss. The Austrian orchestra is one of the few orchestras in the world that were invited by the descendants of the famous composer Johann Strauss to play in the family chapel. The famous Viennese orchestra Johann Strauss Ensemble returns for the 8th year with a show that will fill your hearts with joy, its name being predestined for the winter holidays - "Vienna Magic". Seduced by tradition and the Romanian composers, the Johann Strauss Ensemble prepares for us a few musical surprises together with this year's special guest, the cellist Adrian Naidin. He was Moby's collaborator for the soundtrack of the movie The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman, a very dear project to the American Shia LaBeouf. Adrian Nadin is a complex musician, experimental in jazz, inspired in classic music, forceful and gracious in folklore. The success of the world music project "Songs in a circle", made in collaboration with the pianist Raul Kusak, has recommended him for collaborations with personalities from the international music and cinematographic industry. A revelation in the last year for both the public and the critics, Adrian Naidin also steps on the stage of the National Theatre from Bucharest, in the show "Caramitru - Mălăele, spinning a yarn", to brilliantly moderate the duel of verses interpreted by the Romanian theatre's two forces.
