Paris and Vienna were Europe’s musical capitals in the 19th century, inspiring each other with elegant dance music and lively operettas. François-Xavier Roth conducts the Oslo Philharmonic in a New Year’s program that combines Strauss waltzes with French composers who refined and extended Vienna’s influence.

Protest uses the employees' own words from the demonstrations. Fire combines dramatic news reports with the desperate cries of the victims.
