From January 17 through February 3, Marin Alsop leads the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra (Vienna RSO) and the Arnold Schoenberg Choir in a new production of Leonard Bernstein’s celebrated operetta Candide directed by Lydia Steier.

Featuring video by Momme Hinrichs, costumes by Ursula Kudrna, and lighting by Elana Siberski, the Vienna RSO’s Candide will star tenor Matthew Newlin in the title role, soprano Nikola Hillebrand as Cunegonde, baritone James Newby as Maximilian, baritone Ben McAteer as Dr. Pangloss and tenor Vincent Glander as Voltaire.

During this nine-performance run at the Theater an der Wien, Alsop will also lead the orchestra in symphonies by Bernstein, Shostakovich (Jan 24) and Mahler (Jan 29).
