Description

2025 marks a "Strauss year": We are celebrating the 200th birthday of the "Waltz King" Johann Strauss (the Younger), who was much more than just the Waltz King. His earworm melodies have lost none of their charm and remain evergreen global hits that connect people around the world. Numerous imitators and successors perform his repertoire today, delighting ever-new generations. This album brings together some of the most famous melodies and lesser-played gems from the maestro's pen. Waltzes and other dances alternate to showcase the breadth and originality of Strauss, just as he successfully established in his own highly popular concert programs.
