Matthias 267 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Well, that was incredible! One of those concerts that completely enthralls you - happens only a few times a year, if at all. Energetic atmosphere in the hall, like I've never seen before (aided by the fact that the average attendee was like 30 years younger than usual). The Vienna Philharmonic - though not always perfect - was playing inspired with that string sound that is just to die for. We also got the hall to stand up in the beginning - perhaps we even overdid it with the standing ovations. I counted 7, that's probably more than the VPO gets in a season of subscription concerts. 😂 13 minutes ago, toothless said: I’m happy for all of you folks who could make the trip!

I am attending tomorrow (19.01.20) with my girlfriend and I am unsure of the expectations regarding dress. I have brought a dinner suit (bow tie etc.) and fully anticipated wearing it, but, don’t want to look completely out of place if no one else did today!

I got good seats for me and my sister only for today's concert. Kinda hard to convince non fan to trow another 240 eur for "same thing tomorrow". There was some decent and cheaper options available but I felt that after amazing seats (2nd ground level box, could see the face of JW most of the time) any other seat wouldn't make me as happy. Most likely another boring day on museums, before flying back tomorrow evening. Joni Wiljami 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Sítrónu 494 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I really like the Mutter album because the arrangements are interesting and I kind of consider them as reworks of/by Williams. But I have to say that the Mutter-pieces didn't convince me in the concert hall. Should add though that I had standing place in the back, but still... Anyone else feeling that the pieces seemed a bit shaky/crumbly? Not so much regarding the performance, more in a sense that the venue was too big for the more delicate pieces and solo sections. Oh yeah, and I really have to emphasize that for me personally the most magical moment was the very first moment when JW entered the hall and everyone stood up – within seconds. I've never experienced something like this. Very emotional moment. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remco 685 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The concert was absolutely amazing, but yes, aside from the ‘Remembrances’ encore, I felt there wasn’t really much to the Mutter arrangements, aside from providing her a chance to be a diva. Also, even though the VPO sounded great generally, you could tell it was all fresh music for them and there were some painful mistakes, some of which may have been JW’s fault. It made me feel a bit nervous honestly! I hope they’ll be more secure tomorrow since this is all recorded. But that aside, it was a legendary afternoon and something I will never forget!

Still, I doubt it was as bad as Philly doing "Nimbus 2000" a couple years ago. An entire group of the orchestra was off by a bar and didn't seem to realize it until several bars later. Was almost a complete train wreck. I thought he was going to have to stop and start them over. apples 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
