At the Vienna New Year’s Concert, Johann Strauss more or less holds a monopoly. In Rotterdam, however, the Waltz King faces spirited competition from several 20th-century colleagues. Lang surprises with a Space Odyssey remix, Zimmermann takes us to the fairground and Lachenmann sums up the entire German music history in a madcap march. Strauss has the final word – but which Strauss?
