The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra perform the 2023 New Year's Day concert from the Golden Hall of the Musikverein in Vienna. Franz Welser-Möst conducts the orchestra in the traditional feast of waltzes and polkas composed by the Strauss family and their contemporaries, culminating in the timeless By the Beautiful Blue Danube and Radetzky March.

Long term friendships and creative partnerships are relationships that seemingly flow steadily without disruption, even if the individuals in question don’t speak or meet every day. Or even every year. But occasionally, there are moments where the coalition needs to be celebrated, or at least documented.

Let yourself be taken away by the irresistible charm of Viennese light music and experience your own Neujahrskonzert with the Wiener Philharmoniker, as if you were comfortably seated in the Musikvereinsaal! There’s nothing quite like waltzes and polkas by the Strauss dynasty to celebrate the coming new year, and this collection provides the most famous pieces in celebrated performances, including large excerpts from the New year’s concerts of 2000 and 2002 – excellent vintages – conducted respectively by Riccardo Muti and Nikolaus Harnoncourt. Rudolf Kempe, Karl Böhm, Clemens Krauss and Wilhelm Furtwängler are also invited.

The internationally acclaimed Soprano Martina Bortolotti von Haderburg “Is loved by her public for her bright, warm, expressive voice and her intense performances.”
