Edit: Please note time change to 11am
The Vienna Philharmonic knows how to ring in the new year: with a sold out concert. Luckily, you can hear it live on Classical 90.5 at 11am. Let the black-eyed peas and collard greens cook while you listen to great waltzes from the Strauss', and selections from operas by Franz von Suppé and Giuseppe Verdi.
