Medici Concerts presents A Night in Vienna
Flury-Prinz Duo

Medici Concerts presents an enchanting twilight concert in the magnificent surrounds of St. John's Cathedral featuring the music of Old Vienna. The program includes some of Johann Strauss' most beloved waltzes.

The Flury-Prinz Duo brings together two of Europe's finest soloists - their recent sold-out Carnegie Hall recital received rave reviews. Dieter Flury is Principal Flutist of the Vienna Philharmonic, an artist who has been called no less than a "Flute Paganini". He performs on a golden flute whose radiance is matched by its warm, sensual, shimmering tone. Pianist Maria Prinz, acclaimed soloist and chamber musician, performs with the world's leading conductors and orchestras, including the Vienna Philharmonic.

In the famed tradition of the Vienna Philharmonic New Year's Concert, the program will include a selection of Strauss' famous waltzes - Blue Danube and Voices of Spring as well as Carnaval in Venice and the rollicking Perpetuum Mobile.

The beautifully crafted concert program also includes Bach's glorious B minor sonata, Beethoven - Variations 'The beautiful Minka', Mozart's sonata for flute and piano in B flat major and other works including ... the sensationally virtuosic Carmen Fantasie.
