On January 10, 2025, celebrations will take place at the Grand Théâtre de Provence with a New Year’s concert, whose program has just been unveiled.

Jérémie Rhorer, leading the Cercle de l’Harmonie—an ensemble in residence in Aix-en-Provence for eight years—will perform works by the two composers being honored in 2025. Johann Strauss II, the king of the waltz, will be celebrated on the 200th anniversary of his birth, while the 150th anniversary of Bizet’s death will be commemorated. Other composers like Offenbach, Gounod, and Delibes, who need no glitter to delight audiences, will also feature on the program.

Another highlight for the French conductor is the release of a recording on Alpha Classics dedicated to Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis, presented during the 2024 Easter Festival with a vocal quartet featuring Chen Reiss, Varduhi Abrahamyan, Daniel Behle, and Tareq Nazmi.
