Expressive and breathy strings and plaintive soprano singing. The melodies filled the audience's hearts with a renewed appreciation of the charm of music. In response to the expectations of the many fans who cannot celebrate Christmas without seeing this annual performance, "Christmas/Ave Maria" will be held for the 24th time since its inception in 2000. This year, the Vienna Chamber String Orchestra, formed mainly by musicians active in Vienna, the capital of music, will come to perform the most famous Christmas music. The basic composition is a string ensemble (violin, viola, cello, and double bass). Depending on the program, soprano and harp are added to the ensemble to create fantastic harmonies. The soprano sings "Ave Maria" by J.S. Bach, Schubert, and Caccini in harmony with the strings, and the rich resonance of her voice moves the audience. The performers will breathe life into these songs that have been loved by many for a long time, and you will enjoy the blissful "Ave Maria" as if you are enveloped by the tenderness of the Virgin Mary. This is a special concert that offers a variety of masterpieces performed with the highest quality. Please spend a heart-warming moment!
