2015 - Highlights
Conductor Zubin Mehta joins the Vienna Philharmonic orchestra to conduct their traditional start to the new year from the Musikverein in the heart of Vienna.
Petroc Trelawny presents highlights from the concert in which internationally renowned conductor Zubin Mehta joined the Vienna Philharmonic orchestra to conduct, for the fifth time, their traditional start to the new year from the Musikverein in the heart of Vienna.
The Vienna State Ballet dances to music by Johann Strauss and the orchestra plays the Strauss family's traditional and hugely popular waltzes, polkas and marches, culminating in those perennial favourites By the Beautiful Blue Danube and the rousing Radetzky March.
