Bernstein
literally moves the Earth today [read earthquake] in
a concert of Mahler’s Symphony
No. 5 in the

Bernstein’s autograph after the concert. Yes.

I’m on

no the world—the Musikverein. Well, today is just a

Day 152: Glückliches Neues Jahr; New Year’s Day concert; off to St. Anton
Day 152 — Glückliches Neues Jahr; New Year’s Day
concert; off to St. Anton
01-January-1972 (Sat.)
What a
day! That’s how I end today’s reflections. I get into
standing room for the world-famous New Year’s Day
concert by the Vienna Philharmonic that features
waltzes and polkas by Johann Strauss’ I and II, dad
and son. What fun! Then, I head off on the train to
the Austrian Alps, stop in Innsbruck to give
Elisabeth a gift, and then head on to the
world-famous ski resort of St. Anton for a week of
skiing.
What a day! What a year!

A good day with both contemporary art and Romantic music. I have great subscription seats in the Vienna Musikverein, where I can see the conductor as he conducts the orchestra. From the front. Nice.
