New Year's Concert 2000 (Muti, Wiener Philharmoniker) New Year's Concert 2000 (Muti, Wiener Philharmoniker)
Since 1941 the first great event in the classical calendar has been the New Year's Strauss ... more
concert by the Vienna Philharmonic. The first of
January, 2000 marked the end of "Strauss year",
1999 being the centenary of the death of "Waltz
King" Johann Strauss and the 150th anniversary of
the passing of his father, Johann Strauss. The
previous May the Vienna Philharmonic gave an
outdoor Johann Strauss Gala, though only The Blue
Danube waltz and Radetzky March overlap with this
New Year's Concert. Here the orchestra give an
infectiously warm and confident performance, from
the opening Lagunen waltz to the utterly exuberant
Eljen a Magjar! polka. Mixing well-loved gems with
such rarities as the Albion and Hellenen polkas,
this music-making is a real delight, the lavishly
garlanded hall as ravishing to the eye as the
music to the ear. In homage to 2001: A Space
Odyssey, The Blue Danube is wittily shot as a
series of graceful aerial pans across the outside
of the Musikverein concert hall and over Vienna
itself. Riccardo Muti, conducting his third Vienna
New Year's concert thoroughly enjoys himself, and
it is clear everyone else does too.  On the DVD:
Presented at approximately 1.7-1, the
non-anamorphic picture is very good in the
close-ups, but looses far too much detail in long
shots. In compensation, the Dolby Digital 5.1 live
sound is excellent, creating a convincing
sound-stage and capturing the excitement of the
performance. There are five sets of brief notes,
but more impressively, two pieces, Johann Strauss'
Csardas aus "Ritter Pasman" and Josef Strauss'
Marien-Klange waltz can be viewed with individual
ballets specially filmed in the salons of the
Musikverein, performed by the Ballett der Wiener
Staatsoper. The disc is not region-encoded, and
will work on any PAL compatible DVD player. --Gary
S. Dalkin

Austrian equivalent of The Last Night of The Proms
Review of Vienna 2001 New Year's Concert by  Morgenhund

Advantages: Great sampler, excellent recording.
Disadvantages: Not quite as memorable as being there in person.

...The Vienna New Year's Concert is a tradition somewhat akin to the "Last Night of the Proms" apart from the fact that obviously it is Austrian music that is played, and there is not the same atmosphere. The concert has happened annually since 1939, although originally it used to take place on New Year's Eve rather than New Year's Day, because a poor attendance was feared, after the traditional Austrian "Silvester" revelry. One other difference is that the New Year's Concert is even more exclusive than the Last Night of the Proms, as you have to apply for tickets two years in advance, and they are exceptionally pricey. Indeed applications for the 2003 concert closed on 2nd January this year. It is an event to be seen at, and is also a musical highlight of the Vienna music scene. Each year since 1987, when the late Herbert von Karajan... Read review

Advantages: Experimental album, lyrics, 3 classic-tracks, 2 hits, the booklet is much better.
Disadvantages: The presentation of "40", sound, the booklet is still not good enough yet, lyrics with mistakes.

Fata Morgana (Nico's last Concert) - Nico
Review of Fata Morgana 1988 (Nico's Last Concert) - Nico by  adams66

Advantages: the whole final gig, lots of new material, well recorded
Disadvantages: hard going for newcomers

...Nico (born Christa Paffgen) first came to prominence as a Warhol acolyte in the mid 1960s. Andy Warhol had the bizarre idea of placing the statuesque german model into the grimy New York avant garde rock band The Velvet Underground despite her limited singing experience and vocal range. But somehow it worked. For Nico, Lou Reed wrote three of the best songs he'd ever write - "All Tomorrow's Parties", "I'll Be Your Mirror" and what became Nico's signature song "Femme Fatale". Nico then branched out on her own and over the next twenty years recorded a sporadic series of sometimes brilliant albums but a serious heroin addiction seemed to have stopped her ever making the impact that should have. By the late 1980s Nico had finally kicked her habit and sat down to write a series of new songs. These were showcased at this concert... Read review
