Strauss: Waltzes and Polkas (2000)

The sights and sounds of Vienna are forever associated with the exuberant and popular melodies of Johann Strauss, Jr. This volume of the 'Naxos: Musical Journey' dances on Strauss' signature sounds of the Viennese waltz and polka. See this enchanting city by strolling its bustling streets or enjoy one of its famed coffee houses; ride the impressive Ferris wheel at The Prater, as immortalized in the classic film "The Third Man", and thrill to spectacular views; from an evening at The Vienna State Opera to The Concordia Ball and its old-world elegance, here is a Vienna that exudes opulence and joy, as enduring as Strauss' music itself.
