New Year's Concert: the Complete Works

In celebration of the 75th anniversary of the greatest media event in classical music, Sony Classical released in 2015 a complete edition of all the works ever played at the Wiener Philharmoniker's New Year's Concerts. Performed in the "Golden Hall" of the Musikverein between 1941 and 2015, the iconic live performances were issued for the first time in a single box set of 23 CDs. Now, in 2020, this edition will be available as a 26-CD extended version, with all the new repertoire from the last five years compiled on three additional CDs.

The great tradition was launched on New Year's Day 1941, when Austrian conductor Clemens Krauss presented an all-Strauss-family concert with the Philharmonic - in spite of his fears "that the after-effects of New Year's Eve might have a detrimental influence on attendance". His concern proved unwarranted. Until his death in 1954 - except for 1946-47, when Josef Krips took his place - Krauss shaped the concert's profile. In those years it was broadcast only on radio. Under Krauss's successor, Philharmonic concertmaster Willy Boskovsky - who directed the concert no fewer than 25 times, standing with fiddle in hand as Johann Strauss himself had done -, the TV broadcasts began and soon became an event enjoyed by audiences all over the world.

Since 1980 the Philharmonic has invited leading conductors to join them in Vienna to usher in the new year. From 1980 to 1986, and again in 1994, 1996, 1999 and 2005, Lorin Maazel was on the rostrum. He was followed by Herbert von Karajan (1987), Claudio Abbado (1988, 1991), Carlos Kleiber (1989, 1992), Zubin Mehta (1990, 1995, 1998, 2007, 2015), Riccardo Muti (1993, 1997, 2000, 2004, 2018), Nikolaus Harnoncourt (2001, 2003), Seiji Ozawa (2002), Mariss Jansons (2006, 2012, 2016), Georges Prêtre (2008, 2010), Daniel Barenboim (2009, 2014), Franz Welser-Möst (2011, 2013), Gustavo Dudamel (2017), Christian Thielemann (2019) and Andris Nelsons (2020).

This distinguished roster - all with special ties to the orchestra as well as a special flair for Viennese music - conducts the Wiener Philharmoniker on these discs in 357 compositions centred around the musical dynasty founded by Joseph Lanner and Johann Strauss in the 1820s, then carried on triumphantly by Strauss's sons Josef, Eduard and, of course, the "Waltz King" Johann II. Other featured composers include the likes of Mozart, Schubert, Weber, Brahms, Berlioz, Suppé, Offenbach, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, Wagner, Richard Strauss, Beethoven, Czibulka, Lehár, Stolz and Waldteufel.

One CD is made up of stylish new recordings of eleven Strauss-family works that were given only a single performance, under Clemens Krauss or Josef Krips, during the early years of the New Year's Day Concerts - occasions that were not recorded. (Two selections are included here from that first 1941 concert under Krauss, which was recorded.) And each CD has been given a fitting title, such as "Liebesgrüße", "Opern-Soiree" or "Wein, Weib und Gesang".

The accompanying booklet contains an essay by Dr. Clemens Hellsberg - long-time Philharmonic violinist, historian and former president - as well as images from the orchestra's archives.
