Works by the Strauss dynasty and others.
To kick off the new year, the Deutsche Philharmonie Merck traditionally shows its charming Viennese side. It is not intended to be a rival event, but rather a respectful or even tongue-in-cheek nod to the great Viennese New Year's Concert, when waltzes, polkas and marches by the Strauss family are also played in Griesheim and Bensheim. This music simply has the verve, the energy and the esprit to give a new year the necessary boost. Johann Strauss father and Johann Strauss son in particular knew how to give their music, which always seemed so light-hearted, a substance that has lost none of its quality and impact to this day.
