New Year Sounds with Goosebumps: Rare Solos at the Fürth City Theatre

The Stuttgart Philharmonic opens the year 2026 in Fürth with a spectacular New Year concert. Under Andrey Boreyko, the orchestra presents a program that spans from waltz ecstasy to sound discoveries – featuring theremin, alphorn, and tap dance as sparkling solos. Live atmosphere, brilliant orchestration, and festive audience mood guaranteed.

Strauss Shine and Resonant Rarities

Waltzes, polkas, and overtures from the Strauss dynasty meet musical curiosities: Arkady Shilkloper unleashes a majestic timbre on the alphorn, Carolina Eyck makes the theremin float touchlessly and magnetically, and Kira von Kayser brings rhythmic drive to the orchestra with precise synchronization of tap dance. These rare solo concerts make the program a unique concert experience.

Sound Colors in Space: Acoustics, Light, Emotion

In the Grand Hall of the City Theatre, the transparency and warmth of the classical orchestral sound come together. Filigree woodwind lines, shimmering strings, and pointed brass fanfares interlock like gears. Light changes accentuate the dramatic arcs – from the sparkling start of Die Fledermaus to the blissful conclusion at the beautiful blue Danube.

Masters on the Podium, Stars in the Solos

Andrey Boreyko shapes drives and breathing spaces, maintaining the balance between elegance and temperament. The soloists shine with virtuosity and stage performance, adding vibrant color spots: theremin as a floating, vocally appealing sound, alphorn with earthy resonance, tap dance as a percussive partner of the orchestra – a dramaturgically clever orchestration of special color.

Repertoire with Story: From Die Fledermaus to Spellbound

The program dramaturgy stretches from Johann Strauss Jr. through Miklós Rózsa's Spellbound Concerto to Morton Gould's Tap Dance Concerto. In addition, Shilkloper's concert pieces and Eyck's Remembrance will be heard – modern sound poetry in dialogue with the classical-romantic core repertoire. Historically, the concert relates to the tradition of New Year matinees while also opening doors to rarely heard instruments.

Conclusion

A festive evening full of surprises: great melodies, dancing rhythms, and fascinating sound worlds that must be experienced live. Fürth starts energetically into the new year – secure your seats now for this special concert.
