Franz Welser-Möst conducts the Vienna Philharmonic New Year's Concert for the first time.
On January 1, 2011, Franz Welser-Möst takes up the baton for the annual Vienna Philharmonic New Year's Concert, which in terms of its international coverage represents the largest classical music event in the world. This year's concert will once again be broadcast on television and radio to over 70 countries worldwide. Franz Welser-Möst, following in the footsteps of Clemens Krauss, Josef Krips, Willi Boskovsky, Herbert von Karajan and Nikolaus Harnoncourt, becomes the sixth Austrian conductor to stand at the helm of the Vienna Philharmonic on the first day of the New Year. In June 2010, Franz Welser-Möst also conducted the second major annual concert event of the Vienna Philharmonic, the Summer Night Concert Schönbrunn.

The New Year's Concert on ORF

The televised production of the concert is in the hands of the ORF, with the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) acting as partner for the transmission across Europe. The ORF has prepared a comprehensive accompanying program for viewers in Austria, beginning on New Year's Day at 9:35 AM with a matinee in which the most attractive ballet scenes from previous New Year's Concerts will be shown. At 9:55, the programming continues with a documentary about Franz Welser-Möst, and at 10:40, the program "Auftakt" sets the stage for this traditional concert.

It will be broadcast again on January 6th at 8:15 PM in 3sat and on January 6th at 10:05 AM in ORF 2. In the intermission, ORF 2 will show "Die Wiener Philharmoniker auf hoher See", a documentary by Hannes Rossacher, while in Ö1 radio, Franz Welser-Möst speaks on "Im Künstlerzimmer". The documentary "Die Welt der Wiener Philharmoniker" offers insights into the daily life of the orchestra on January 2nd at 2:00 PM on 3sat.

In view of the tradition of the New Year's Concerts, which began during the Second World War, the Vienna Philharmonic performs the concert even today not only as a presentation of Viennese musical culture at the highest level, but also to send the world a New Year's greeting in the spirit of hope, friendship and peace.

[mysweetsmile23]

I love that the ballet was done in real locations and not a stage---it really enhance the dreaminess of it all!

[1938gwen]

Wonderful, I wonder where the ballet scenes were filmed? Thanks for posting this.

Zerstörung Deutscher Kultur war das erklärte Ziel von JewSA im WK-I 1917: "Nie wieder Schiller!" war deren Parole; Als sie 1943 in WK-II eintraten war es wieder mit der nicht heuchlerischer sein könneneden Phrase: "Um das Erbe Goethes zu retten!" Von wegen Goethe! Jetzt vegetiert Europa zwischen Zynagogen und Moscheen!88!

Thank you for posting! My favorite parts of the concert (been watching since I was a child, thanks to my parents) are the ballets, and this one was marvelous. The costumes and that wonderful Austro-Hungarian flair created a beautiful winter tableau. I also have a weakness for Josef Strauss' works, so this was perfect.
