It would be as great as the sunset ending of the Last Crusade. In Boston in 2017, he actually did that when performing the March from 1941. I also attended a couple other concerts featuring JW's music (conducted by others) where the audience started spontaneously to clap in rhythm with the inevitable Imperial March encore.

Popular Post Marian Schedenig 8,192 Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2019 12 hours ago, rough cut said: What’s a likely encore for Vienna, though? The Superman March could be a contender. Imperial March another. I guess Raiders’ March (which I think was mentioned already) is also a probability. I consider the following four candidates very likely: The Imperial March Yoda's Theme The Raider's March Something from TROS Of course, that's too many already. Unless ASM shows up for the violin stuff in the first half and does Yoda as an encore before the intermission or something. 9 hours ago, Modest Expectations said: Imagine Williams turning around and conducting the audience clapping to The Raiders March like they do with Radetzky March on New Year's Eve concerts.

bollemanneke 3,342 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I somehow don't want ASM to be involved in this concert. This should just be the Wiener Philharmoniker playing JW's music as it was written. apples and heidl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bollemanneke 3,342 Posted November 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 8, 2019 I don't know, I just feel that this should be an occasion for the VP to perform and hopefully record their interpretation of all these pieces.

heidl 358 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 16 hours ago, Modest Expectations said: I can sympathize with that. We know how she plays this music, and she will continue to play it with many different orchestras. Meanwhile this concert is a unique opportunity to take full advantage of this particular orchestra. From a certain point of view it would be better if she didn't steal even a measure of spotlight from them. I agree. I'd rather have them play the original arrangements, not the new ASM ones. Furthermore I think Mutter goes way overboard with her style of playing. It's not so much serving the piece, but instead drawing way too much attention to her violin playing. 1977 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlastoEls 562 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I’d love her there - chance to see a world class musician. But for a handful of pieces only, letting the orchestra stay in the spotlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Melvin Frohike 12 Posted November 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 14, 2019 I just got my ticket for the Sunday concert after having been in the waiting queue since October 28th 13:54 GMT+1. I queued for all categories and now got category 6-7. FYI, the ticket clearly states JW as the conductor as well as Anne-Sophie Mutter as the violinist.

crumbs 14,306 Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Well, the speculation was well founded. ASM live with JW in Austria, what a dream. Congrats on your ticket. Wish I was as lucky. I understand JW's age but I wish with all my heart they could add a third concert to this visit. It seems like such a rare opportunity to only have two performances given the occasion.

Biodome 714 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Kinda started to regret picking the e-ticket/print@home option without thinking when ordering tickets. Would have much preferred an actual, physical ticket from Musikverein, to keep as a souvenir. Tried contacting them, and it turns out I can't change that now.

It still won't have the gold coating that the original ticket office tickets have. Another thing that occurred to me, putting two semi-confirmed bits of information about the concerts together: (1) ASM performing The Devil's Dance + (2) the concert being recorded for a commercial CD and/or video release = (3) an official release of the new Devil's Dance.

When the concerts were scheduled for last year, several people emailed the ticket office to ask if there was a chance that they would be recorded, and got the reply that the plan was to record and release them. At least one person asked if that plan was still current and got a a reply confirming that it was. Not an actual official announcement, as I said, but presumably from a sufficiently official source. bollemanneke and rpvee 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s so amazing, isn’t it? I mean, this is John Williams’ European debut! Other than in London, he has never conducted in the Old World. Everything will be filmed and recorded, it’s going to be spectacular. https://thelegacyofjohnwilliams.com/2019/11/21/anne-sophie-mutter-interview/ Disco Stu and crumbs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
