Start the new year accompanied by great music, the emotions of the most famous melodies and the elegant atmosphere of a special concert. Salsomaggiore Terme celebrates the arrival of 2027 with the Grand New Year’s Concert, an event dedicated to the beauty of classical music and the tradition of grand New Year’s concerts.
On 1 January, in the prestigious setting of the Palazzo dei Congressi, the I Musici di Parma orchestra will take the audience on a musical journey through some of the most beloved works from the European operatic and symphonic repertoire. The programme will feature a selection of composers who have left an indelible mark on the history of music. The famous melodies of Gioachino Rossini will transport the audience into the brilliant and lively world of Italian opera; the programme will then move on to the intense and passionate atmospheres of Georges Bizet, the profound emotions of Giuseppe Verdi’s operas, and the compositions of Johann Strauss, the quintessential symbol of the musical tradition associated with New Year’s celebrations.
A programme that spans different eras and styles, alternating moments of great intensity with brilliant, festive passages. And, in keeping with the much-loved tradition of New Year’s Eve concerts, the most eagerly awaited moment is sure to feature: the grand finale to the strains of Johann Strauss Sr’s Radetzky March. An unmistakable piece, capable of transforming the music into a true communal celebration, perfectly accompanied by the rhythm of the audience’s applause. A joyful and rousing conclusion, which will herald the arrival of 2027 with energy, enthusiasm and a shared wish for the New Year.
At the end of the performance, the audience will be invited to join in a celebratory toast, to prolong the pleasure of the occasion and exchange New Year’s greetings in a convivial atmosphere.
Information about the event and advance ticket sales will be available from 1 December 2026 at the IAT – Tourist Information and Welcome Office in Salsomaggiore Terme.
