Handel received im- portant training in Halle-upon-Saale and worked as a compos- er in Hamburg and Italy before settling in London in 1712; he became a naturalised British subject in 1727. He was strongly influenced both by the great composers of the Italian Baroque and by the middle-German polyphonic choral tradition. Within fifteen years, Handel had started three commercial opera companies to supply the English nobility with Italian opera. Musicologist Winton Dean writes that his operas show that “Handel was not only a great composer; he was a dramatic genius of the first order.” As Alexander’s Feast(1736) was well received, Handel made a transition to English choral works.

Their traditional greeting to the world is born of a spirit of hope, friendship and peace. January 1st 2019 marks 60 years that ORF will have been accompanying this "Concert of Concerts" with its television cameras. In fact, the programme is now broadcasted in almost 100 countries worldwide. A historical journey through time documenting the extent to which the broadcast has changed over the years, "Prelude to the New Year's Concert", will be shown at 10:40 on ORF2. Once again there will be a New Year’s Concert newcomer: German conductor Christian Thielemann. His engagement at the New Year’s Concert has long been anticipated by the music world, having been connected musically to the Vienna Philharmonic since 2000 and having often conducted at the Vienna State Opera. As chief conductor of the Sächsischen Staatskapelle Orchestra, Christian Thielemann has performed many concerts in Austria, not least in Salzburg, where he has been artistic director of the Easter Festival since 2013. ’Kapellmeister’ Thielemann (who prefers not to be referred to as Maestro) is very familiar with the music of the Strauss dynasty and the world of operetta. Nevertheless, his interpretation of this music especially at the New Year’s Concert represents a new level of achievement for him.

Building upon the firm musical foundations laid by his father, Johann Strauss I (1804–1849), and Joseph Lanner (1801–1843), the younger Johann (along with his brothers, Josef and Eduard) achieved so high a development of the classical Viennese waltz that it became as much a feature of the concert hall as of the ballroom. For more than half a century Johann II captivated not only Vienna but also the whole of Europe and America with his abundantly tuneful waltzes, polkas, quadrilles and marches. The thrice-married ‘Waltz King’ later turned his attention to the composition of operetta, and completed sixteen stage works besides more than 500 orchestral compositions – including the most famous of all waltzes, The Blue Danube (1867). Johann Strauss II died in Vienna on 3 June 1899. Johann Strauss II: The Complete Orchestral Edition represents a milestone in recording history, presenting, for the first time ever, the entire orchestral output of the ‘Waltz King’. Despite their supremely high standard of musical invention, the majority of the compositions have never before been commercially recorded and have been painstakingly assembled from archives around the world.
