In the high-spirited world of operetta, the champagne flows freely and everything ends happily. Dame Malvina Major and the NZSO take you to this romantic place with the music of the masters, Johann Strauss and Franz Lehar, and delightful arias and waltzes celebrating the good life on the banks of the blue Danube. In a side trip to Bohemia we’ll hear Rusalka’s exquisite Song to the Moon, a water-sprite’s yearning declaration of love. The greatest symphony by that Viennese prodigy, Mozart, makes a fitting prelude to this evening of effervescent music.
