A traditional Konzertkassa aims to secure physical ticket sales and has no interest in third-party recordings or streams that aim to replace the live act, unless they would cash-in behind a paywall (like in Berlin).

I think the Berlin Phil is a few years ahead with their Digital Concert Hall and archiving every concert in it. Because the Vienna Phil has no such thing, I don't think a recording would reduce interest in attending the concert live. It would still sell I think. But at least an audio recording would be nice to have, released at the end of this year, for example. It complements the first album nicely. 2 minutes ago, BB-8 said: There could, however, be an internal conflict with the existing VC 2 premier recording and Across the Stars part 2.

Unfortunately I tried 3 times yesterday to no avail, received nothing whatsoever from my bank, gave up and went to bed. Retried this morning (one last seat at Parterre), same thing :-( I guess I'll take this as a sign it was not the most reasonable thing to do given my March schedule... (may be I'll have more luck for Milan when/if it comes back, and the program is more film music oriented for me). Have you tried contacting them?

Raiders of the SoundtrArk 2,429 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I was wondering how long you have to collect your ticket to the box office? Is this something you should fast or can it wait the day of the concert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,172 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Usually you can pick the up right before the concert. I believe they restricted that at some point during the pandemic (to prevent too many people from flooding the ticket office at the same time), but I'm not sure if that restriction is still in place. PS: They're redesigned their ticket template since the last concert. The new tickets don't look half as valuable as the old ones.

Biodome 714 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Well, this has certainly put an unexpected dent in my finances. I'm already attending two Berlin Philharmonic subscription series, and I have a trip to Dublin for the Hans Zimmer concert in March. If John Williams keeps doing surprise concerts in Europe like this, I will go bankrupt. It will be absolutely worth it, though. bigjimwilson and Martinland 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Berlin Phil has run their platform for over 10 years, but only the pandemic caused other orchestras to really catch up - Boston and Seattle for example. I think some orchestras go through sites such as medici.tv which mix material from a lot of genres and venues. I do agree that DG is unlikely to release two JW similar albums with the Violin Concerto No. 2. The piece is too long and they do not want confusion in the market place about different releases so close together. I also think a reason why the Tanglewood Premier video has not been announced for release is that it can be difficult to sell a multiple composer video that would be the outcome of releasing that. Other than events such as the Tanglewood 75 or Bernstein 100 concert, we do not see a lot of mixed concert releases. The fact that it has been on various streaming platforms and aired in Europe and the US on TV suggests perhaps it will live on in those venues. (I would love an official physical copy in any case.) So, I think we will get "Across the Stars II" with the VC no. 2, the other new violin arrangements and the revised Across the Stars version as stated elsewhere in these forums. Maybe 1 or 2 other surprises to get the playing time up to 65-75 mins. We'll see this as a CD, Deluxe CD packaging with background videos, Blu-ray Audio (no video) and digital download/streaming. I do think that we will also get a "Live in Vienna 2" - but video (and maybe Blu-ray Audio) only. No CD or Digital release. I think this will be available after the various streaming and TV versions happen of the concert. (It's possible Carnegie Hall might be recorded instead, but I somehow think the Vienna Phil would have a higher marketability than Philadelphia - no offense to Philly!) Further, I would expect we will get the Washington DC June Concert and the Tanglewood August one too. Those will likely be streamed or aired soon thereafter.

I'm not sure, because setting up the cameras in the Musikverein seemed to be a really big deal last time with all the camera crew involved. In contrast, just an audio recording should be quite easy. I mean obviously most people would like some sort of release, even if it's months later, than no release at all. So it sucks that the Vienna Phil does not have a Digital Concert Hall equivalent. But anyways, if they decide to not record this second Vienna concert, then that's how it is. So much great stuff coming up this year that's still not officially announced.

So it sucks that the Vienna Phil does not have a Digital Concert Hall equivalent. That's all true. EuroVision or someone like that would have to fund the entire thing - and maybe pay for some of the concert itself. Not impossible, but they may also feel that the first album can sell for a very long time and no reason to add another release. I suspect they will record the audio of the rehearsals and the performance, but no idea if they will edit it into a release. Could also be something they sit on for a few years too. Fingers crossed though that this combo - Williams - Mutter - VPO - is strong enough to ensure a release at some point.
