The New Year's Concert recorded live at the Musikverein Vienna on January 1, 2001. Includes a programme of music by the Strauss family. Conducted by Nikolaus Harnoncourt.

Johann Strauss Jr.: Waltzes and Polkas. "The Thunder and Lightning" Polka, with its flashing cymbals and booming bass drum, has always been a favorite in our household. "The Blue Danube" Waltz isn't bad either and "The Radetzky March" (by Johann Sr.) is hard to beat for clap-along fun. Suggested recording: Again, there are many recordings of these works available, but you can't be without the DVD of Carlos Kleiber conducting the Vienna Philharmonic on New Year's Day 1992 on Philips.

One of the most anticipated events of the classical calendar, the Vienna Philharmonic's exquisite New Year's Concert brings the musicians of the prestigious orchestra together under the baton of a different influential conductor each year. In the 2011 edition, the Vienna Philharmonic is joined by one of Austria's most celebrated artists, Franz Welser-Möst, renowned for his expertise in Austrian repertoire, especially the works of Anton Bruckner. For the occasion, of course, maestro and orchestra offer up a program full of light and air, far from the grandiose intensity of that Linz-born great. In addition to rousing waltzes and polkas by the Strauss dynasty—Johann Strauss Sr. and Jr., plus Eduard and Josef—we are treated to the first of Liszt's Mephisto Waltzes, as well as works by Joseph Lanner and Josef Hellmesberger Jr.
