5 out of 5 stars WOW!   April 3, 2010
Wildflower (Los Angeles, Ca)
I can't help myself. My feet drags my unconscious body out of my comfortable sitting position on my recliner to grab a broom stick or my dog and dance around the room.

I love this CD as well, it has all the most popular music numbers of the time. It is just fabulous. I received my CD within days of ordered. I couldn't be happier. My family and I dance all week to Strauss. This is the CD you must have. It is just wonderful to dance to and to listen to. Strauss in his lifetime was known as "The Waltz King", and was largely responsible for the popularity of the waltz in Vienna during the 19th century. This CD will tell you that he was indeed the King.



5 out of 5 stars Love this 2-CD from Vienna Philharmonic!   January 31, 2009

My favorite collection of perfectly choreographed Johann Strauss ll as well as his father Johann Strauss, and his brother Josepf. Johann ll gets top billing.

This is one of my better investments of the most beautiful music you will ever hear (waltzes and polkas).

I can't get enough. Highly Recommended!

Strauss: The Best of Vienna
Whether one's likenesses for Strauss' music lies with the father or the son does not matter; (Richard neither). 3/4 time music along with their polkas, quadrilles and marches still keep Vienna as the world capital of waltzes.

These CD's were wonderful. When I drive in the Sierra Nevada mountians I want something peaceful but not boring. I love, love, love it.
