Here is the complete collection of Riccardo Muti’s recordings made for Warner Classics with the Wiener Philharmoniker, all closely related to the Viennese repertoire! This rich collaboration started in the mid-80s with the successful recording of the complete cycle of Schubert symphonies (the Sixth and excerpts from Rosamunde are digitally released for the first time ever).
The mutual understanding between the conductor and the orchestra was such that Muti was frequently invited to conduct the New Year’s Concert (the last time was no later than this year). Let’s enjoy two of these exhilarating performances from 1997 and 2000.
