Description
JOHANN STRAUSS II (1825-1899) initially wrote FR�HLINGSSTIMMEN, Op. 410 (VOICES OF SPRING) as a concert aria. He dedicated the piece, with a libretto by Richard Gen�e, to pianist-composer Alfred Gr�nfeld. When Bertha Schwarz (stage name, Bianca Bianchi) sang the first performance at the Theater an der Wien on March 1, 1883, the audience loved it so much that they demanded an encore. The composer wasted no time in arranging a purely orchestral version, which the Strauss Orchestra premiered only seventeen days later. The waltz achieved great success during his Russian tour in 1886. This edition for reduced orchestra was arranged by Adolphe Dumont. Instrumentation: 1.1.2.1: 2.2.1.0: Perc(2): Pno Cond Sc in set: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set). Reprint edition.
