Hey, an Austrian is winning the skiing downhill in Kitzbühel, causing the country to grind to a halt. 
 
I guess we all have to wait with bated breath if the society TV program at 8 pm local time shows anything interesting... 

Here's a little snippet from the rehearsal that was included in Austrian TV news.

Maybe we'll get something more complete from the ball itself tomorrow. A recording would be nice, though. (maybe in conjunction with his entire 2nd Vienna concert?)

While we wait...

At least here's the lavish Strauss fanfare, confirming that Nelsons was part of the parade.

Note the red light provided by Emil Berliner Studios in the photo of JW taken March 2022!

What we can see in the video on the far left of the formation is that JW included a Wagner Tuba and an Althorn (tenor horn) in the score, a nice touch. 
 
Otherwise it probably follows the already lavish instrumentation of the Richard Strauss fanfare. 
2 timpani
2 (normal) tubas
6 trumpets
6 trombones 
6 horns + Wagner tuba + Althorn (8 horns in the RS piece) 
 
Edit: It's a bit difficult to tell exactly which instruments they are, since there's a lot in that horn family that look similar. One's definitely smaller than the other, though.

The tech specs of the YouTube release confirm it's Emil Berliner with DG/Universal. I consider it unlikely that they would just post a single track without further plans for a full physical album.

Fawkes sounds great! Looking forward to the full album.

This will be a day long remembered!

So do the cookies.
 

What does the red dot mean?
 
 
At least it's no SUV.

Hello,
 
On Sunday, I saw how the technician picked up a very large tape.
Saturday after the concert.  The bodyguard warned in a polite manner and with a sense of humor of how the Maestro's departure was going to take place.  Everyone understood. There was no problem and people hummed Raiders 20220312_183025.mp4  
 

So we get a recording of the concert...on LP? Well...

Below image was posted on Emil Berliner Studios' Instagram-account.
 
Note the same door, water bottles, chair, collapsable tables, etc.
 
There is a direct-to-disc turntable to be seen (behind the lady with headphones).
 
Oh joy! 
 

Here's a short snippet from sunday's concert last encore.

Yes it was Janezic that played the horn solos on both days. After the Saturday performance, I was very happy that there was only one real flub on Sunday in "Leia's Theme".
