| The Grosser Saal has been the venue of the New Year´s Concerts since 1939 |
It is now less than three weeks to one of the great televised musical highlights of each year, the Vienna New Year´s Concert on 1 January 2012. The Vienna Philharmonic will be conducted by the Latvian Maestro Mariss Jansons, whom some of you may remember already from the concert 2006.
The Grosser Saal (Large hall) of the Musikverein is the ideal setting for the concert. It is - at least in my opinion - the world´s most beautiful concert hall, and probably also has the best accoustics.
If you are not one of those lucky ticket holders (tickets are nowadays drawn by lot over this website at the beginning of each year) be sure to mark the day for a musical feast in front of the telly on
January 1.
