The ever-popular Vienna Classics Concert of the Iceland Symphony Orchestra is a true New Year's feast, and the light and pleasant music played there sets the tone for the new year.
The program features classic Viennese music that puts everyone in a good mood – waltzes, polkas and gallops – but among the regular highlights of the concerts year after year are the Emperor Waltz and the Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss II. Arias and duets from popular operettas will also be performed by two outstanding soloists. Soprano Eyrún Unnarsdóttir has received much praise for her bright and expressive interpretation and has won awards in international singing competitions. Sveinn Dúa is well known to Icelandic concertgoers and has performed with the Iceland Symphony Orchestra often, including Beethoven's 9th Symphony at the opening of Harpa in 2011.
The Vienna Classics Concert is always the perfect start to the new year.
