What did the old year give? What will the new year offer? Questions related to the mystical new beginning. It’s time to take stock, it’s time to plan the future in a continuous loop. The offer of the New Year’s Eve and New Year’s concert of the Slovak Philharmonic and its guests is just about such sparks of what we may have experienced and what we can still return to. It is music in its multiplicity and variety, in its generosity and nobility, in its grandiosity and fragility. If anything happens, music is in man, around man and for man. PF 2016!
