Wiener Philharmoniker

Vienna’s musical year shines with two dates that always dazzle: The New Year’s Day concert with the Vienna Philharmonic, and the Vienna Philharmonic’s open-air June concert in the gardens of the palace of Schönbrunn, the Summer Night Concert. The program will be devoted to works by Liszt, but detailed information will not be available until later in 2011. Suffice it to say that Valery Gergiev, in the opinion of The Guardian “the greatest conductor of his generation”, will be leading the orchestra. A renowned soloist will take part in the concert for an extra dose of musical excitement As OÖNachrichten last year summed up: for the more than 100,000 people attending the concert, it was “a heavenly summer night with the Vienna Philharmonic”. The concert will be recorded and filmed by Austrian Television. It will be broadcast live or delayed by over 60 television stations worldwide. CD and DVD versions will both be rush-released.
