Wiener Philharmoniker

The Wiener Philharmoniker (Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra) was founded in 1842, but did not start to give regular subscription concerts until 1860 since when it had promoted its own series of concerts. It started with a series of 5 concerts in the winter/spring of 1860, and from November 1860 it has given a regular yearly series. I have posted the first eleven seasons from 1860 - 1870. During this time the orchestra was conducted first by Karl Eckert, and then Otto Dessoff
