Vienna State Ballet 2020 New Years Celebration

Every new year for me officially begins upon watching the annual concert given by the Vienna Philharmonic. 2020 is no different for me, but there are a couple of historic details to note, including the first time a Spanish choreographer has created the iconic new year’s pieces danced by the Vienna State Ballet. José Carlos Martinez, formerly the director of La Compañía Nacional de Danza of Spain, choreographed – in my very humble opinion – a couple of the most beautiful ballets ever performed for this event.

Although the entire concert is worthy of your time, here are the details if you’d like to skip straight to the dancing:

At 15:22-25:25
Music: Be Embraced, You Millions! by Johann Strauss II
Dancers: Natascha Mair + Denis Cherevychko, Nina Tonoli + Davide Dato, Madison Young + Robert Gabdulin


At 37:02-41:18
Music: Twelve Contredances by Ludwig van Beethoven
Dancers: Olga Esina + Jakob Feyferlik, Ketevan Papava + Roman Lazik

I wish you all a new year filled with love, laughter, and lots of dancing, and hope that perhaps watching this concert will become part of your tradition, too!
