About this album
Johann Strauss Greatest Hits gathers the waltzes and polkas that made Johann Strauss Jr. the king of Viennese light classical music. This 1977 compilation brings together the composer’s most enduring orchestral favourites, including The Blue Danube, Vienna Blood, Emperor Waltz and The Tales From the Vienna Woods, alongside brisk dances such as Champagne Polka and Tritsch Tritsch Polka. Strauss’s gift for melody, elegance and rhythmic lift helped define the sound of 19th-century Vienna and made his music a lasting concert staple well beyond the ballroom. The result is a compact showcase of the tunes that secured his international popularity.
