Special Event Meymandi Concert Hall, Raleigh Sari Gruber, soprano Grant Llewellyn, Music Director We pay tribute to one of the music world’s oldest traditions—ringing in the New Year with the sophisticated sounds of old Vienna. But our version comes with a bang, and we’re not just talking about the midnight fireworks. The exquisite vocal talents of soprano Sari Gruber, star of our 2007 production of The Marriage of Figaro, help welcome in a wonderful New Year.
