In a few words
Treat yourself to an unforgettable New Year’s Eve with the Lyon Opera. This year, conductor Wayne Marshall takes us on a musical voyage across the Atlantic, all the way to Broadway!
Introductory
With Candide in full swing on stage, the orchestra is fizzing with that Broadway spirit! Britain’s Wayne Marshall leads the New Year's Eve festivities. Pianist, conductor, organist... it is impossible to label this musician and great connoisseur of Leonard Bernstein and George Gershwin, who is just as much at home in jazz and popular music as the symphonic repertoire. The rhythms and boldness of American music will see us safely into 2023!
