Johann Strauss II

October 25, 1825 - June 3, 1899
born in Vienna, Austria, composed during the Romantic period
Johann Strauss II (1825-1899) was an Austrian composer of the 19th century, celebrated for his waltzes and operettas. His father, the composer and orchestra leader Johann Strauss I, wanted his eldest son to become a banker, but a career in music was inevitable, and in 1844 he conducted his first concert. Forming his own orchestra the next year, Strauss eventually toured Europe and traveled as far afield as Russia and the United States. His popular waltzes include On the Beautiful Blue Danube, the Emperor Waltz, and Tales from the Vienna Woods, and his most famous operetta is Die Fledermaus. ~ Blair Sanderson, Rovi

Very funny. I forgot about that one.
gaye.pearl
Beautiful, beautiful! However, every time I hear it I think back to Curly Howard of the Three Stooges lip syncing this dressed in drag. Hillarious!
I love Johann! Amazing composer for classical ballet! Follow me if you agree.
Wonderful! The Baroque music is The best!
The most beautiful music this side of heaven!
Waaaaaaaaaaa a y y y y y y y y better than jestin biebur
THIS IS GOOD MUSIC
I love this song! Just picturing a compilation of people falling with this song is hilarious!
Well instructed dew06d !!! You could most likely teach us all a lot!

@lisabragg8 and @christianti b b s 1 0 1 : Rodgers' original work for the animated Disney film was heavily inspired by the German Romance-peri o d composers. The similarities between the works of both Strauss I and II are intentional, so it's no surprise the sounds of this period should recall the film to those less familiar with the music of the period. Personally, I'm partial to the late Baroque German composers myself, but I do have a soft spot in my heart for the late 18th and 19th century stuff as w

@christianti b b s 101: no; the music in Cinderella was composed by Richard Rodgers.
Isn't this played in the movie Cinderella?
Compositores como el gran Johan Strauss no volverán, pero gracias a esta estación puedo revivir música tan bella como ésta. Muy agradecido a ustedes los de Pandora.
I like the song it is the bast song ever
I'am Lovin this!!!

Johan Strauss II gets a paragraph, his brother Josef gets a write-up as long as my arm...come on Pandora you can do better.
Just right, when I'm working late.. again
Wunderbare, erheiternd.
I LOVE HIS MUSIC , BACK WHERE I COME FROM I JUST TO PLAY THAT MUSIC I WAS A MUSICIAN
im in love with this =>
(cont'd from below) it when I want happy music. Most of the comments are happy too. I guess I can just skip over or ignore the negative comments. . .
Just read over all the comments previous to this one. I can't figure out why the folks that don't like the music listen to it and then leave negative comments. They can make their own station with music that they like, or just delete the few songs they don't like on this station. They seem to miss the point of Pandora! I love Pandora! I love my stations! I love that I can make stations that I like and delete any songs that I don't like! I made my station based on The Blue Danube. I listen to
The greatest work by Johann Strauss II in my opinion is, Flugschrifte n _ W a l t z For Orchestra, Op. 300. This is his best piece by far.
A. Rieu does look a lot like Mel, but he is a way cool musician that has child prodigies on his shows etc. Hopefully when he drinks he doesn't utter the same hater comments that Mel did. He's known as the waltz king as he does mostly these kinds of melodies. No one does justice to those waltzes like Andre. and he speaks Nederlands, Deutsch, English as well as French. Beautiful. Just wish he would get a haircut.
This is a treat for your soul.
The King !!!!!!!!
Amazing! Andre Rieu does great renditions (and looks a scary lot like Mel Gibson)
Posterity... t h a t ' s the people who come after you like your posterior. DMB Oooooops!
Never get tired of Strauss'es Blue Danube. I can let it cycle all day. He could have written about the Brown Mississippi or the Green Amazon and been lost to posteity. Something to be greaful about, huh. DMB
wonderful music, great composer and station; thanks!
Agradecido con toda sinceridad, su amigo Rodrigo.

3/4 time is perfect for dancing and drinking :)
This music reminds me of a baby's diaper: sickly sweet and devoid of texture.
kuskow5
The music is beautiful and very easy to listen to
bob.pope
In my opinion the waltz is the epitome of beautiful music, and Strauss is the epitome of the composer of beautiful music.
It was beautiful eighty years ago and it still has value it will play on again
smajumder102
