Program for New Year’s concert from Vienna
The 2018 New Year’s concert from Vienna (with the Vienna Philharmonic), on January 1, will be conducted by Riccardo Muti for the fifth time. KOCE will broadcast the event at 9 p.m. on Jan. 1. This is always one of the most enjoyable classical music broadcasts of the year (in our opinion) and is best accompanied with a good bottle of champagne.
Muti and the Vienna Phil will perform the following program:
- Johann Strauss, Jr.
Einzugsmarsch aus der Operette „Der Zigeunerbaron“, ohne op. - Josef Strauss
Wiener Fresken. Walzer, op. 249 - Johann Strauss, Jr.
Brautschau. Polka, op. 417
Leichtes Blut. Polka schnell, op. 319 - Johann Strauss, sen.
Marienwalzer, op.212
Wilhelm Tell Galopp, op. 29b - Franz von Suppé
Ouvertüre zu “Boccaccio” - Johann Strauss, Jr.
Myrthenblüten. Walzer, op. 395 - Alphons Czibulka
Stephanie-Gavotte, op. 312 - Johann Strauss, Jr.
Freikugeln. Polka schnell, op. 326
Tales from the Vienna Woods, Waltz, op. 325
Fest-Marsch, op. 452
Stadt und Land. Polka mazur, op. 322
Un ballo in maschera. Quadrille, op. 272
Rosen aus dem Süden. Walzer, op. 388 - Josef Strauss
Eingesendet. Polka schnell, op. 240
They will also, of course, play the two traditional encores, which are the “Blue Danube” Waltz and the “Radetzky” March. The U.S. broadcast has in the past trimmed some items from the program, but these days the complete concert will be viewable on YouTube.
