New Year’s Concert with Ernie and Bert

Sun, Jan 19, 2025, 11:00
Elbphilharmonie, Großer Saal (Hamburg)
NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchester, Ernie & Bert, Dave Claessen (Conductor)
Who’s whistling »On the beautiful blue Danube«? Oh right, Ernie and Bert are on their way to the New Year’s concert in the Elbphilharmonie. You can tell from the tip of Ernie’s nose that he’s thinking about how he could make himself useful in the concert: »Well, I’m going on a manhunt with the ›Bandit Gallop‹, I’m turning the ›Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka‹ into a ›Ritsch-Ratsch-Polka‹ and when Bert is completely exhausted after the ›Radetzky March‹, I’ll sing him a lullaby. In the middle of a concert? Oh, that doesn’t matter. You all just sing along, don’t you?«

New Year's Concert Gergely Madaras Johann Strauss jr. Franz Liszt Franz Lehár

Wed, Jan 8, 2025, 19:00
Gergely Madaras (Conductor), Lajos Sárközy Jr. (Violin), Jenő Lisztes (Cimbalom)
Vienna’s traditions for New Year’s concerts date all the way back to 1838. The format, which has become a global TV event, originated in the 1930s, always with music by the Strauss family and some other composers, and with a selection of waltzes, mazurkas, polkas and marches.Conductor Gergely Madaras grew up in Budapest and crossed the Danube daily. The distance between Budapest and Vienna via the Danube is short - Hungarian folk music and dance music has been very popular in the Austrian capital and left its mark on orchestral music there. Some of Vienna's prominent composers were Hungarians - like Franz Lehár (1870-1946). The Gold and Silver Waltz is one of his most famous works. The piano phantom Franz Liszt (1811-1886), represented by Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, also left a mark on the city.Johannes Brahms (1833–1897) was German, but still one of Vienna’s leading figures from the 1860s and on. Some of Brahm’s best friends were Hungarians, and he was strongly influenced by Hungarian music. At this concert you can hear three of his popular Hungarian Dances for orchestra. Nobody ranks higher than the Strauss Family in the Vienna New Year’s concert. Johann Strauss Jr. (1825-1899) is represented by seven pieces at the concert, among them An der schönen blauen Donau. The concert ends with the Radetzky March by Johann Strauss Sr. (1804-1849).

New Year’s Eve concert with Kirill Petrenko and Daniil Trifonov

Tue, Dec 31, 2024, 17:30
Philharmonie Berlin, Main Auditorium (Berlin)
Berliner Philharmoniker (Orchestra), Kirill Petrenko (Conductor), Daniil Trifonov (Piano)
Martha Argerich speaks of Daniil Trifonov with astonishment: “He has everything and more – tenderness, but also a demonic quality. I’ve never heard anything like it.” To round off the year, the star pianist performs Johannes Brahms’ monumentally virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 2 with the Berliner Philharmoniker and Kirill Petrenko. After the interval, the powerful and festive prelude from Richard Wagner’s opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg follows. The concert concludes with two lavishly-orchestrated dance works by Richard Strauss of a contrasting nature: the charming waltzes from Der Rosenkavalier and Salome’s Dance, with its exhibitionistic, almost brutal sensuality.
