Thank you for posting this; my mother discovered it and forwarded it to me. This is beautiful, very sensitively written and yet with the grandeur that characterizes the Viennese Waltz (to me, at least). I personally prefer Lanner's style, much as I generally prefer Josef Strauss to his more famous brother, but as the appreciation of art is very subjective I certainly admire all the contributors to the Viennese Waltz.
Jaja, die Walzer-Kriege .... Joseph Lanner gegen Johann Strauss-Vater und Jacques Offenbach gegen Johann Strauss-Sohn - Vergleichen was Vergleichbar ist !
Joseph Lanner versus Johann Strauss-Father and Jacques Offenbach versus Johann Strauss-Son - Compare the comparable.....
Schau'n Sie sich doch mal die Zeiten an, der Schani (vom französischen 'Jean' abegeleitet, lebte vom 25. Oktober 1825 (*St. Ulrich, bei Wien, heute ein Teil von Wien-Neubau) bis zum 3. Juni 1899 (+ Wien); Karl Michael Ziehrer, * 2. Mai 1843 in Wien - † 14. November 1922 in Wien war eine ganz andere Generation. Ueber den in musikalischen Wettstreiten ausgetragenen 'Walzerkrieg' gibt es jederzeit nachbringbare 'Beweise'. Habe die Ehre...
So anders war die Ziehrer-Generation nicht. Dafür war die Zeitdifferenz zu klein. Die Differenzen schlugen sich beim Ziehrer in einem "echten" Krieg nieder. Man lese über die Bosheiten, die dem Ziehrer von Johann, resp. dessen Frau Jetty, und später vor allem von seinem Bruder Eduard entgegenschlugen. Josef hingegen hat Offenbachs Musik (die ohenhin weniger Tanzwalzer umfasst) heiss verehrt und sie in zahlreichen Quadrillen adaptiert. Musikalische "Wettstreite" gab es natürlich immer.
thank you! you seem to aim to promote vienna waltzes. I love waltz very much. I have determined to look for all the waltzes that I feel beautiful in melody, no matter if they are famous or not. You know, sometimes you will find some pieces are good but no one knows at all. I know that Lanner is the competitor of Strauss, the senior. I like to read about the stories about the great waltz writers so I know this. Happy to share with you.
you got it. there are so many forgotten waltzes that are worth in every way to be rediscovered.
yes, Lanner was competitor of Strauss the elder. but in my opinion, Lanner actually is the true inventor of the vienna waltz. he developped that type of music more than anybody else. and i am sure if his son august survived, he'd have become as famous as strauss the younger !
oh, I see, Lanner had a son called August. I like this waltz, I can find something I like here inside. The whole waltz is elegant. I often hope to listen more pieces Lanner composed but in Hong Kong, we usually could only find cd for most known, i.e., strauss the junior. of course, I love his waltzes! But people will only know 'waltz equals to Blue Danube' ha ha. they are shallow.
very romantic and bohemian waltz

Quelle superbe valse. Elle est dans le film '' Ne touchez à la hache '' avec Jeanne Balibar et Guillaume Depardieu.

This makes me think of the Chez Paul in the Blues Brothers.
