It has an inherent majestic strength: Camille Saint-Saëns' 3rd Symphony, composed in 1886 - one of the first non-sacred organ works for orchestra. With Saint-Saëns' powerful sounds, the Philharmonie Salzburg will first make the Stadtkirche Hallein tremble on this evening, before paying homage to Johann Strauss on his 200th birthday in the second part of the concert, together with the lower school choir of the Musisches Gymnasium Salzburg.
