The event is broadcast to over 90 countries all over the world and watched by more than 50 million viewers.

"This was Muti’s most beautiful New Year’s Concert"  – Kronen Zeitung, Austria

In 2018 Riccardo Muti conducted the New Year’s concert for the 5th time (1993, 1997, 2000 and 2004). Together with Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Muti is one of the most engaged New Year's Concert conductors since the era of Lorin Maazel. The conductor’s close artistic relationship with the Vienna Philharmonic orchestra celebrates 47 years, almost 500 concerts and dates back to 1971. In 2011, this exceptional bond was awarded with the Honorary Membership in the Vienna Philharmonic.
