2017 New Year’s Concert
Vienna Philharmonic/Gustavo Dudamel
The annual New Year’s concert by the Vienna Philharmonic has been a tradition since 1939. Each year, a different world-class conductor is invited to lead the orchestra in this celebration of the music of the Strauss family (Johann not Richard) and other Viennese stand-outs. Gustavo Dudamel did the honors for the 2017 concert, recorded live in the flower-festooned Golden Hall of Vienna’s Musikverein. Happy New Year!
