Capture of the 2026 Viennese New Year’s Concert performed by the Göttinger Symphonieorchester under conductor Nicholas Milton, recorded on 4 January 2026 at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and broadcast by AVROTROS Klassiek. This filmed live concert continues the Viennese New Year tradition, largely devoted to Johann Strauss II and his circle — Josef Strauss, Otto Nicolai and Zéquinha de Abreu for the programme’s lighter “surprises.” Confirmed works include the overture to Die Fledermaus (The Bat), the Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka Op. 214 and the celebrated waltz An der schönen, blauen Donau (The Blue Danube). Because the full programme could not be documented reliably in its entirety, only the confirmed works are listed here, in keeping with the catalogue’s commitment to accuracy. Recorded in the Concertgebouw’s Main Hall, known for its acoustics, this full concert combines waltzes, polkas and marches in a festive New Year spirit. It is a reference capture for followers of classical music, of the Straussian repertoire and of the Göttingen symphony orchestra led by Nicholas Milton. A live concert to enjoy in full.
