  • Kaiser-Walzer, Op. 437 (Emperor Waltz) is a waltz composed by Johann Strauss II in 1889. The waltz was originally titled Hand in Hand and was intended as a toast made in August of that year by Emperor of Austria Franz Joseph I on the occasion of his visit to the German Emperor Wilhelm II where it was symbolic as a 'toast of friendship' extended by Austria-Hungary to the German Empire.

    As a dancer, I naturally love Strauss' pieces of all the classical greats. I still listen to Beethoven, Bach, Tchaikovsky, and the others but dancing to Strauss' pieces makes them somewhat more interactive.

    **Repost, but this should always be at the top!!!**
    I think this 2011 is the best era to be alive, but I like the idea of a living in the country side. The only music you hear is what your mother hums or father fiddles. Then one evening, after months and months of waiting, you take a carriage to a ball. Everyone is adorned in splendid gowns and suits. Inside is the only orchestra you will hear for many more months, so you cherish every single instant of it. Every note, every crescendo is a visceral dream. I strive to listen to music like that.

    You know, I do hear a tiny bit of lossiness due to the digital conversion, but I have to take my hat off to you for having successfully preserved the full dynamic range of the original recording. That happens very rarely in TH-cam classical music clips, and I appreciate the care you took to LEAVE THE ORIGINAL DYNAMICS INTACT. Nice job; no overmodulation and no noise. Neat.

    My dear Friend,
    He literaly cherished the idea to accept a peace treaty with the western allies of WWI in 1917-1918, when he came to power after his old uncle's die in november 1916.
    He and his wife tried hard, contacted French & English on neutral soil in Neuchâtel (CH), but German intelligence service discovered, and it was all. The end is well known, and Karl I died exiled in Funchal (P) on the island of Madeira in 1921, aged only 34...! He was a good Man. Amen!

    To be frank, it's a bit like that today as well. At home, you only hear the average modern music that gets grinded into your brains by various media, but there comes that rare opportunity where you attend a ball and get to hear, and properly dance to, real music. If you ever get the opportunity, I would strongly recommend parttaking in a ball event, it is simply an unmatched experience.

    The Austria-Hungarian Empire was a precursor to the European Union. You could travel to work from the Black Sea to Bavaria to Poland right into Northern Italy without hinderence. The money used was the Thaler, from which comes the word dollar. Meinen GrosseTanten, haben nach den Russian Umsturzung von Kiev bis Wien zur Fusse gegangen.

    Well, I concur with everyone praising Johann Strauss--the beauty and durability and danceability of this gorgeous waltz. But I also submit my praised for the "emperor's" (Franz Joseph I's) whiskers! The late 19th century had, world-wide, the wildest hair and beards and 'burns in the history of men. Looks fun.

Did you read about the 110-year-old Ukrainian who recently said that, of all the regimes he's lived under, the Austrians were the best?! It seems that, like so much else, people only appreciated the Austro-Hungarian Empire after it had gone. Danke schon and long live Austria!

    Dear Lucas! Austria was a small duchy when Hungary was already a great eastern-european power, a rival of Byzantium in the race for domination over the Balcans. In 1485 Matthias Corvinus occupied Wienna and a few more years and the Hapsburg domination over Austria would have ended, but the rest is history.
