Co kraj to obyczaj - the Poles say, which means: each country has its own customs.
And this is true - in Russia, on December 31 of every year, someone certainly goes to the bathhouse, in Ukraine, someone trudges to the Maidan, and in Austria, on January 1 of every year, lovers of classical music and, especially, the music of representatives of the Strauss family, go to the Vienna Opera and the Great Hall of the Vienna Musical Society (Vienna Philharmonic).

These wonderful concerts attract sophisticated audiences - and to say the least, what kind of conductors in different times led Vienna Opera and the Vienna Philharmonic - just remember Herbert von Karajan.


New Year's Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra (1987)
Conductor - Herbert von Karajan

Strauss - Radetzky March - Karajan
Johann Strauss the Father - Radetzky March - final number of the New Year's concert of 1987
Conductor - Herbert von Karajan

The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra performs the "Radetzky March", composed by Johann Strauss the Father as a greeting to the troops of Field Marshal Johann Joseph Wenzel Radetzky returning from the suppression of the Italian uprising in 1848.
Later this march became the parade march of Radetzky's hussar regiment.

The recording was made during the traditional New Year's concert at the Vienna Philharmonic in 1987, which usually takes place in the Golden Hall.
It is interesting that in our time the “Radetzky March” is the ceremonial anthem of the Chilean Military Academy named after Bernardo O'Higgins.
At the stadium of the Danish football club Aarhus, this march is played whenever the home team scores a goal.
The march is performed before departure on all flights of the largest Israeli airline, El Al.

Herbert von Karajan was born in 1908 in Austria-Hungary in Mozart's city of Salzburg.

From 1916 to 1926 he studied at the Salzburg Conservatory, and already during his studies he developed a penchant for conducting.

From 1929 to 1934 he was the first Kapellmeister at the theater in Ulm in Germany.

From 1934 to 1941 he was a conductor opera house city ​​of Aachen in Germany.


In 1935, Herbert von Karajan became Germany's youngest Director General of Music.

In 1955 he was appointed for life musical director Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, with which he first performed back in 1937.

From 1957 to 1964 he was artistic director of the Vienna State Opera, worked with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. As part of the traditional Mozart Festival in his native Salzburg, Herbert von Karajan founded the Easter Festival.
The conductor died in 1989 in the city of Anif in Austria.

Herbert von Karajan was one of the most famous conductors of the 20th century. He left behind an extensive discography. This is all that can be given credit to him, but, as they say, even the sun has spots.

In 1933, a few months after Hitler came to power, Herbert von Karajan joined the National Socialist Party, which greatly contributed to his career. He conducted the operas of Richard Wagner, so beloved by the Fuhrer. However, according to contemporaries, at one of the performances Hitler drew attention to the fact that Karajan was conducting from memory, without a score, this caused the Fuhrer's indignation and since then he has not attended performances in which Karajan conducted.

Karajan paid a lot of attention to PR campaigns dedicated to his performances and recordings. They remember this incident: a joint disc was recorded by the orchestra led by Karajan and three great Soviet musicians - Richter, Oistrakh and Rostropovich. They recorded it in one take, but Richter (a very demanding musician) wanted to repeat the performance, since he was not satisfied with something in the first version, to which Karajan complained about the lack of time, since he wanted to have time to take photos with everyone.

Many blame Karajan for the fact that he prescribed very high fees invited musicians, thus excessively inflating their own fees.
But, be that as it may, he was a brilliant and versatile conductor, although not all the works he conducted received positive reviews from critics.
