In this glittering disc, we hear such classics as the Radetzky March of Johann Strauss I, and his son, Johann Strauss II's overture to Der Zigeunerbaron (The Gypsy Baron), one of the enduring masterpieces of the Viennese concert repertoire. The irresistibly exciting Unter Donner und Blitz (Thunder and Lightning) offers thunderous delight, whilst Ander schenen blauen Donau (On the Beautiful Blue Danube) is one of the most unforgettable melodies ever written. Strauss the Elder's second son, Josef, was an outstanding composer in his own right, as demonstrated by the frenzy of excitement that is the Jokey-Polka (Jockey-Polka). After positions as Chief Conductor of Prague State Opera and First Permanent Conductor of Leipzig Opera, Johannes Wildner was the General Music Director of the New Philharmonic Orchestra of Westphalia (Germany) for ten years from 1997. His years of experience as a member of the Vienna Philharmonic and the Vienna State Opera Orchestra have given his conducting a distinctive stamp.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Overture \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Geheime Anziehungskrafte, Op. 173, 'Dynamiden' \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Annen Polka, Op. 117 \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Jokey, Polka Schnell, Op. 278 \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Geschichten Aus Dem Wienerwald, Op. 325 \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Unter Donner Und Blitz, Op. 324 \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Un Ballo in Maschera, Op. 272 \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Auf Ferienreisen, Op. 133 \u003cbr\u003e1.9 An Der Schonen, Blaun Donau, Op. 314 \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Champagner - Polka, Op. 211 \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Radetzky March, Op. 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
