A chance to enjoy highlights from the live concert in which Latvian conductor Mariss Jansons conducted the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in their traditional start to the New Year. Petroc Trelawny is on hand to guide us through the finest galopps, polkas and waltzes composed by the Strauss family and their contemporaries.
2016 marks the 75th anniversary of the annual concert from the beautiful Musikverein in the heart of Vienna, and viewers can enjoy performances not only from the Vienna Philharmonic but also by dancers from the Vienna State Ballet and the world-famous Vienna Boys' Choir.
In keeping with tradition, the concert ends with the much-loved By the Beautiful Blue Danube and culminates in the perennially crowd-pleasing Radetzky March.
