BONUS: New York Philharmonic performs "Pizzicato Polka"

Johann Strauss II is justly celebrated for his voluptuous orchestrations and rousing dance rhythms, but here he exhibits the more delicate side of his musical genius, crafting a piece entirely around the plucking of strings. This gem in miniature was performed as part of the New York Philharmonic's 2018 New Year's Eve celebration.
