Description

Start the new year together, listen to the right music and be part of the performance yourself – this concert experience for the whole family with the Tonkünstler-Orchester Niederösterreich!

Grandma and grandpa, mom and dad, children and grandchildren: everyone is welcome at this New Year's concert. After the great premiere success in 2025, an exciting programme awaits adiences again in 2026: Waltzes, polkas, gallops and whatever else the orchestral New Year's repertoire has to offer will ensure a lively and enjoyable event for generations: It brings people together, is fun and puts them in a good mood!

For 15 years, the Tonspiele – the Tonkünstler-Orchester's music education program – has been building bridges between classical music and its young and young-at-heart audiences. In moderated and staged concerts as well as interactive workshops for all school levels, the focus is on independent action and experimentation.
