It was a truly fantastic show. It was nice to see many seniors out for this gala event. I’m a bit younger than many in attendance, but I loved the show. Also a nice touch from Core entertainment to provide free coffee and strudel after the show. A very kind gesture and I will come back in December 2019. !!!!😊👍
Spectacular orchestration and dancing. Superb acoustics at Strathmore Center
I very much enjoy the concert year after year! Love it!
This concert was my daughter's Christmas present, she has been in band since forth grade and being such a music lover i thought that she would enjoy this. She loved it!!! and seeing her enjoying it so much made me enjoyed it even more. We will attend more concerts for sure. I am glad I got to experienced this with her.
Beautiful music, skillful performers, a joyful event for the entire family.
I wear hearing aids. I turned them off and the vocalists were still to loud. I seen several people put there fingers in there ears. Amplification was to high.
seat mates were fun, strangers when we sat down, friends when we left the music was wonderful, maestro was entertaining, ballet dancers not so good
This performance, as always, absolutely wonderful - the music, beauty of the young artists,their exquisite attire,the magnificence of their voices,tenor especially, unforgettable. At the end of this performance each year, I look forward to the first Sunday of next year - 2016. Thank you for bringing this memorable musical performance to LA.
Wonderfully passionate display from the Strauss players and conductor.
Uplifting, fun , enjoyable. Only to recommend. Better than the PBS broadcast of the Vienna New Years Concert event as they combine singing, acting and ballet directly on the stage.
This is our second time to this concert and this show was much better than last year. The music selection and director were great. I will definitely be back next year. The special guest with the accordion was truly amazing!
it's a great expercise to listen to much wonderful concert. the conductor ANDREAS SPÖRRI is a cute guys, he catched all audiences attentions. Disney concert hall is a nice place to perform this new year contert. the seat i had was hebaid of the stage, but very close to the stage. i was very enjoy it.
We have attended for several years and this was the best yet, Everything was superb.: the conductor, the singers, the dancers, and the orchestra,
The music, waltz dancing, opera and ballet were wonderful. Great orchestra with excellent musicians and the conductor had a great personality, explaining the history about each piece of music.
I can't say enough about the quality of the performance Of the artists in the show. The opera singers, ballet dancers, Ballroom dancers, and musicians were superb and gave Heartfelt renditions in their respective fields . The audience Rewarded them with numerous sustained periods of Appaluse and standing ovations.
I have always wanted to spend New Year's in Vienna after watching the gala concert on PBS for many years. Of course, that never came true -- at least until January 3 when Vienna came to Scranton. It was a marvelous concert, filled with Strauss waltzes, a magnificent tenor and soprano, ballet and ballroom dancers. I was, indeed, transported to the City of Dreams.
Great music and beautiful singing and dancing by Europine talented performers. Wonderful way to spent New Years Eve!
Terrific music. Awesome singing and dancing. Will go again next year. Wish there were more concerts like this.
My husband and I have gone to Salute to Vienna every year when we do not get to go to Vienna itself for New Years. It started off as a very upbeat and fun concert, but it has gone severely downhill. This year the program was just plain boring. One unmemorable piece of music after another. Almost none of the great Vienna music. We watched the TV broadcast of the New Year's concert from Vienna's Musikverien on Jan 1,, and it was SO much better. I don't normally think TV concerts are better than live concerts! Why can't Salute to Vienna play the really great music from Vienna? Even the conductor on TV had so much more personality than this conductor. The concert felt like the orchestra had already played the great music in previous years and so now is resorting to playing ever more esoteric music. The music is esoteric for a reason - it isn't that good! Just stick to the basics, and it would be so much better. Blue Danube, Gold and Silver Waltz, Artists' Waltz, two or three polkas, a couple of arias from Fledermaus and Magic Flute, end with the Radetski March, and you are done. All the music would be fun, lively, and in the spirit of both Vienna and the new year. This is a very easy concert to get right. This concert was way too long. It was almost two and a half hours. With boring music playing, it felt like an eternity. The ballroom dancers were wonderful, they really gave a great performance. Beautiful costumes too. And the singers were very good also. The ballet dancers were not so good though. Two extremely skinny girls and one rather heavy one, who inexplicably was partnered with a short skinny boy who just made her look all that much bigger. They had a lot of choreography that they were supposed to do identically, and they never managed to get it right. There was a guest violinist who was fantastic. He was not on the program so I do not know his name unfortunately. But wow, could he ever play. I don't think a single person in the concert actually was Austrian, let alone from Vienna though. Everyone is from somewhere in eastern Europe. That is a disappointment. Vienna has a tradition of celebrating new Years that simply cannot be replicated by the cultures of other countries. Vienna is quite unique. Maybe that was why the music choices were off - it seems no one from Vienna was part of the management. It felt a bit ersatz Vienna to me. Overall, it was an OK concert, but rather boring and with some amateurish dancing. Since there is nothing better playing at that time, you may as well go. But this certainly is not that concert that it could be.
Lots talking and flash photos by audience was not necessary.
