New Year’s Eve with the Capital Philharmonic

Wednesday December 31, 2025
8:00 PM

After a stunning debut last fall, conductor Ruth Ochs returns to the Capital Philharmonic's podium as a Music Director finalist — this time she will lead our most festive night of the year. Celebrate the turning of the year with a program that dances across borders and centuries — from the swirling romance of Strauss’s Blue Danube to the spirited rhythms of Spain and beyond. This joyful concert is filled with color, flair, and just the right amount of sparkle. And the celebration doesn’t stop when the music ends — raise a glass at our post-concert champagne reception featuring live jazz performed by members of the orchestra. Let the music move you into 2026!
