2025 has arrived!
5
00:01:02,980 --> 00:01:06,300
Happy New Year from me,
Petroc Trelawny, and a very warm

00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:10,260
welcome to the Golden Hall
of the Musikverien here in Vienna.
7
00:01:10,260 --> 00:01:13,620
Once again, we share that sense
of the old year put-to-bed,
8
00:01:13,620 --> 00:01:18,500
with all its moments of joy
and sadness, celebration and regret.
9
00:01:18,500 --> 00:01:21,980
Ahead lies the clean
slate of a New Year,
10
00:01:21,980 --> 00:01:25,820
the empty pages of a diary waiting
to be filled.
11
00:01:25,820 --> 00:01:29,220
And what better first entry
than this rich concert of music
12
00:01:29,220 --> 00:01:31,380
familiar and less well known
from the players of
13
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:34,420
the Vienna Philharmonic -
this year directed by the Italian

00:01:34,420 --> 00:01:38,300
conductor Riccardo Muti?

A little light snow in Vienna this

00:01:58,180 --> 00:02:00,340
Over the next few hours,
works by Constanze Geiger

00:02:00,340 --> 00:02:02,020
and Joseph Hellmesberger,
Edward and Jozef Strauss,
44
00:02:02,020 --> 00:02:04,500
and Johann Strauss Senior.
45
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:07,180
But, as ever, the spotlight falls
on Johann Strauss Junior -
46
00:02:07,180 --> 00:02:11,420
the waltz King - particularly
so this year, as it
47
00:02:11,420 --> 00:02:13,020
marks his bicentenary.
48
00:02:13,020 --> 00:02:18,300
He was born on October
25th 1825 in St Ulrich,
49
00:02:19,900 --> 00:02:22,780
now part of Vienna's seventh
District, a 25 minute walk
50
00:02:22,780 --> 00:02:25,180
from the Musikverein,
or a short stroll and then four
51
00:02:25,180 --> 00:02:27,260
stops on the Number Two tram.
52
00:02:27,260 --> 00:02:29,820
The Annen and Tritsch Tratsch
polkas, the overture
53
00:02:29,820 --> 00:02:32,540
to the operetta Gypsy Baron,
and the Lagoon, Acceleration
54
00:02:32,540 --> 00:02:35,180
and Blue Danube Waltzes are amongst
the works by Johann Strauss
55
00:02:35,180 --> 00:02:37,900
that we will hear this morning.
56
00:02:37,900 --> 00:02:38,220
Riccardo
57
00:02:38,220 --> 00:02:38,460
Riccardo Muti

Riccardo Muti takes
59
00:02:38,660 --> 00:02:38,820
Riccardo Muti takes to

Riccardo Muti takes to the stage.
62
00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:45,780
We are going to start
with his father - showing his tacit
63
00:02:45,780 --> 00:02:51,020
support for events in that
revolutionary year of 1848 -
64
00:03:10,260 --> 00:03:15,500
MUSIC: Freiheits-Marsch Op.226
by Johann Strauss Vater
65
00:05:37,220 --> 00:05:41,700
APPLAUSE.
66
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:43,620
The Freedom March by
Johann Strauss Senior -
67
00:05:43,620 --> 00:05:48,540
the composer writing in 1848 -
that year of revolution.
68
00:05:48,540 --> 00:05:50,660
The writer August Silberstein
was interned because of his
69
00:05:50,660 --> 00:05:53,420
revolutionary activities.
70
00:05:53,420 --> 00:05:55,820
He had written a novella called
Village Swallows from Austria,
71
00:05:55,820 --> 00:06:01,100
which inspired this waltz by Josef
Strauss.
72
00:14:54,260 --> 00:14:59,220
APPLAUSE.

00:15:15,660 --> 00:15:21,420
success in the German-speaking world
in the 1860s.
100
00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:24,220
Riccardo Muti was born in Naples
and was a pianist before deciding
101
00:15:24,220 --> 00:15:27,460
early on that he wanted to conduct.
102
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:30,100
It was in 1967 that he won
the Guido Cantelli Conducting
103
00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:31,300
Competition in Milan -
104
00:15:31,300 --> 00:15:33,780
an event that
launched his career.
105
00:15:33,780 --> 00:15:36,700
Four years later, in 1971, Herbert
von Karajan asked him to conduct
106
00:15:36,700 --> 00:15:39,500
the Vienna Philharmonic
at the Salzburg Festival -
107
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:41,860
thus starting a partnership
with this orchestra that has already
108
00:15:41,860 --> 00:15:46,380
lasted well over half a century.
109
00:15:46,380 --> 00:15:46,660
He
110
00:15:46,660 --> 00:15:46,820

Milan and now Music Director of the

00:15:57,180 --> 00:15:57,380
Milan and now Music Director of the

137
00:15:58,260 --> 00:16:02,940
Chicago Symphony Orchestra, which he
directed for 13 years.
138
00:16:02,940 --> 00:16:05,820
Next, the first work of the year
by Johann Strauss Junior.
139
00:16:05,820 --> 00:16:10,860
Appropriately, it is all
about new beginnings -
140
00:16:10,900 --> 00:16:13,500
in this case for Vienna
in the 1860s, when the Ringstrasse
141
00:16:13,500 --> 00:16:14,540
was being laid out.
142
00:16:14,540 --> 00:16:16,420
The related works
were causing chaos,
143
00:16:16,420 --> 00:16:18,820
the sort of inconvenience urban
dwellers in the UK -
144
00:16:18,820 --> 00:16:20,940
especially those with cars -
might complain about today.
145
00:16:20,940 --> 00:16:23,740
As the Fremden Blatt
newspaper noted in 1864,
146
00:16:23,740 --> 00:16:28,700
"One need only take a walk
through the inner city.
147
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:30,140
In Karntnerstrasse, buildings
are being demolished,
148
00:16:30,140 --> 00:16:32,300
at Graben they are paving
the street, at Lugeck
149
00:16:32,300 --> 00:16:34,940
they are laying down pipes,
the High Market is closed off,
150
00:16:34,940 --> 00:16:40,140
and so on it goes."
151
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:44,380
This was the largest urban
redevelopment programme
152
00:16:44,380 --> 00:16:47,020
in Vienna's history -
and, of course, Strauss was on hand
153
00:16:47,020 --> 00:16:51,860
to write a piece of music
to reflect the upheaval.
154
00:16:51,860 --> 00:16:57,180
The Demolition Men's Polka saluted
workers who had come here
155
00:17:04,700 --> 00:17:06,420
from across the Empire
to work on the project.
156
00:20:32,060 --> 00:20:37,180
APPLAUSE
157
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:42,500
The Demolition Polka
by Johann Strauss.
158
00:20:43,260 --> 00:20:45,780
From Vienna - we'll take
the train to Venice.
159
00:20:45,780 --> 00:20:48,700
We won't catch the 1224 express
but there is a night train
160
00:20:48,700 --> 00:20:50,780
leaving at 9:50 and arriving
in perfect time for
161
00:20:50,780 --> 00:20:51,860
breakfast over-looking the Lagoon.
162
00:20:51,860 --> 00:20:54,220
The Lagoon Waltz is based on themes
from Strauss's operetta
163
00:20:54,220 --> 00:20:56,700
A Night in Venice.
164
00:29:22,180 --> 00:29:27,140
APPLAUSE
165
00:29:27,140 --> 00:29:29,500
The Lagoon Waltz -
melodies from Strauss's operetta
166
00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:34,740
A Night in Venice.
167
00:29:35,540 --> 00:29:37,940
Gondolas, carnival season,
and the pigeons of St Mark's Square
168
00:29:37,940 --> 00:29:41,620
all central to the plot of a show
that opened in Berlin in 1883 ?
169
00:29:41,620 --> 00:29:46,820
the only one of Strauss's operettas
not premiered here in Vienna.
170
00:29:46,900 --> 00:29:47,060
Let
171
00:29:47,060 --> 00:29:48,020

308
00:34:06,420 --> 00:34:11,580
while dancing the waltz?
309
00:34:11,620 --> 00:34:14,260

director Barbara Weissenbeck draws

00:34:21,260 --> 00:34:26,540

320

are back on stage and ready
to continue their annual programme
321
01:01:09,820 --> 01:01:11,980

on Day One of 2025.
325
01:01:21,900 --> 01:01:24,820
The Vienna Phil has a long
relationship with the music
326
01:01:24,820 --> 01:01:28,580
of Johann Strauss -
though this was the orchestra
327
01:01:28,580 --> 01:01:33,260
of Brahms and Mahler,
it would often play his works too -
328
01:01:33,260 --> 01:01:35,700
many of its members also plated
in Strauss's own ensembles.
329
01:01:35,700 --> 01:01:38,540
The roots of this concert can be
traced to the early 1930s,
330
01:01:38,540 --> 01:01:40,500
when conductor Clemens Krauss
started an annual all-Strauss
331
01:01:40,500 --> 01:01:41,660
concert at the Salzburg Festival.
332
01:01:41,660 --> 01:01:46,900

place on December 31st 1939.

to remind you 2025 marks
the composer's bicentenary year.

which opened in 1882.
458
01:21:13,940 --> 01:21:16,340
Quickly, the Viennese upper class

01:21:16,340 --> 01:21:18,060

01:32:05,220 --> 01:32:07,620
to feature in the Vienna
New Year's Day Concert -
510
01:32:07,620 --> 01:32:08,860
The Ferdinandus Waltz by Constanze
Geiger.
511
01:32:08,860 --> 01:32:09,060
Remember,
512
01:32:09,060 --> 01:32:09,420
Remember, the
513
01:32:09,420 --> 01:32:09,620
Remember, the first
514
01:32:09,620 --> 01:32:09,860
Remember, the first New
515
01:32:09,860 --> 01:32:10,060
Remember, the first New Year
516
01:32:10,060 --> 01:32:10,260
Remember, the first New Year Concert
517
01:32:10,260 --> 01:32:10,420
Remember, the first New Year Concert
was
518
01:32:10,420 --> 01:32:10,620
Remember, the first New Year Concert
was back
519
01:32:10,620 --> 01:32:10,860
Remember, the first New Year Concert
was back in
520
01:32:10,860 --> 01:32:15,580
Remember, the first New Year Concert
was back in 1939.
521
01:32:15,580 --> 01:32:18,460
The original version as played
by the Strauss Orchestra is lost -
522
01:32:18,460 --> 01:32:21,100
just the piano score survives -
which was orchestrated for today's
523
01:32:21,100 --> 01:32:25,100
concert by Wolfgang Dorner.
524
01:32:25,100 --> 01:32:29,460
By the way, I count 11 female
players in the Vienna Philharmonic
525
01:32:29,460 --> 01:32:32,780
line-up this year.
526
01:32:32,780 --> 01:32:38,020
We are marking the bicentenary of
Johann Strauss Junior, born in 1825.
527
01:32:38,220 --> 01:32:41,140
Next, a work that
reflects his love life.
528
01:32:41,140 --> 01:32:43,460
His first wife, the singer
Henrietta Treffz, known
529
01:32:43,460 --> 01:32:46,340
as Jetty, died in 1878.
530
01:32:46,340 --> 01:32:48,740
50 days after her passing
he married again, the actress
531
01:32:48,740 --> 01:32:52,820
Angelica Dittrich.
532
01:32:52,820 --> 01:32:55,220
Alas, this was an unhappy
relationship that ended in divorce.
533
01:32:55,220 --> 01:32:58,340
It was not helped by the fact
that she had a long affair
534
01:32:58,340 --> 01:32:59,380
with a theatre director.
535
01:32:59,380 --> 01:33:03,860
Not long before the divorce came
through, Strauss wrote two polkas,
536
01:33:03,860 --> 01:33:07,220
the titles of which explained his
point of view.
537
01:33:07,220 --> 01:33:09,900
One was called The Wiser
One Yields, the other -
538
01:33:09,900 --> 01:33:12,820
which we are going to hear next -
was Either, Or!
539
01:33:12,820 --> 01:33:14,900
Either him - or me.
540
01:33:14,900 --> 01:33:18,460
Strauss explained he was not up
for any kind of menage a trois!
541
01:33:18,460 --> 01:33:18,940
Riccardo
542
01:33:18,940 --> 01:33:20,980
Riccardo Muti
543
01:33:20,980 --> 01:33:21,140
Riccardo Muti returns
544
01:33:21,140 --> 01:33:21,340
Riccardo Muti returns to
545
01:33:21,340 --> 01:33:22,340
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
546
01:33:22,340 --> 01:33:22,540
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
And
547
01:33:22,540 --> 01:33:22,940
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
And the
548
01:33:22,940 --> 01:33:23,140
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
And the dancers
549
01:33:23,140 --> 01:33:23,340
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
And the dancers are
550
01:33:23,340 --> 01:33:28,300
Riccardo Muti returns to conduct.
And the dancers are back.
551
01:33:31,020 --> 01:33:31,180
And the dancers are back. This
552
01:33:31,180 --> 01:33:31,500
And the dancers are back. This time
553
01:33:31,500 --> 01:33:32,260
And the dancers are back. This time
they
554
01:33:32,260 --> 01:33:32,340
And the dancers are back. This time
they are

And the dancers are back. This time
they are in the Vienna museum

And the dancers are back. This time
they are in the Vienna museum of

01:33:33,420 --> 01:33:33,580
they are in the Vienna museum of

they are in the Vienna museum of
science and
562
01:33:33,780 --> 01:33:36,740
they are in the Vienna museum of
science and technology.
563
01:36:23,660 --> 01:36:25,580
APPLAUSE
564
01:36:25,580 --> 01:36:27,980
Railway locos and ballet
dancers - an unexpectedly
565
01:36:27,980 --> 01:36:32,300
successful combination!
566
01:36:32,300 --> 01:36:36,220
Jozef Strauss's Transaction Waltz
next - a transaction
567
01:36:36,220 --> 01:36:40,580
might be about money,
but it might also be a subtle
568
01:36:40,580 --> 01:36:42,500
piece of negotiation,
or an act of reconciliation.
569
01:36:42,500 --> 01:36:44,940
Included today as 2025 marks
the 30th anniversary of Austria
570
01:36:44,940 --> 01:36:47,020
joining the European Union.
571
01:47:02,740 --> 01:47:07,940
APPLAUSE
572
01:47:08,220 --> 01:47:12,220

586
01:47:26,660 --> 01:47:29,060
A nod to the railways in that
last ballet sequence.
587
01:47:29,060 --> 01:47:31,220
Just one month before
the birth of Johann Strauss
588
01:47:31,220 --> 01:47:33,820
II in 1825, the world's first public
railway line began operation
589
01:47:33,820 --> 01:47:39,060
between Stockton and Darlington.
590
01:47:40,060 --> 01:47:43,260
So that gives us another
bicentenary to mark this year.
591
01:47:43,260 --> 01:47:45,420
It was Europe's growing railway
network that enabled the
592
01:47:45,420 --> 01:47:47,140
Strauss family to achieve such
international success
593
01:47:47,140 --> 01:47:48,540
? their orchestras
travelling to Berlin,
594
01:47:48,540 --> 01:47:50,700
Paris and Budapest, and further
afield to St Petersburg,
595
01:47:50,700 --> 01:47:55,900
where Strauss gave concerts
for a decade in the 1850s and 1860s.
596
01:47:57,780 --> 01:47:57,980
Strauss
597
01:47:57,980 --> 01:47:58,140
Strauss would

01:47:58,140 --> 01:47:59,460

701
01:56:04,300 --> 01:56:06,660
New Year Concert is one of Strauss's
greatest waltzes -

Wagner proclaimed this his favourite
work by Strauss, Brahms quoted

706
01:56:21,820 --> 01:56:23,940
It was an immediate hit,

words attributed to Martin Luther,
732
02:07:19,340 --> 02:07:21,740
that inspired Strauss to write
that waltz in 1869 -
733
