Festive gala will be a Viennese whirl
The romance and elegance of a Viennese ballroom is re-created on a Bradford stage this winter.
The Viennese Strauss Gala, featuring the European Orchestral Ensemble, is billed as a picturesque presentation re-creating the feel of the Viennese festive season.
Audiences will be whisked away to glamorous soirees and Strauss waltzes.
The show features highlights from some of the great operettas of the Strauss family, Kalman and Lehar, including Die Fledermaus and The Merry Widow, and stars soloists from Opera North, English National Opera and D’Oyly Carte.
A Viennese Strauss Gala is at St George’s Hall on Saturday, February 26. For tickets, ring (01274) 432000.
