The Kraków Philharmonic bids the old year 2024 farewell with waltzes, marches, polkas, opera and operetta arias. We will visit Venice and the banks of the blue Danube, we will dance with The Csárdás Princess, Rusalka and The Merry Widow, and we will raise the glasses to the sounds of the toast from La traviata.
