Johann Strauss II's Frühlingsstimmen (Voices of Spring) is one out of a handful of the most famous waltzes ever created by Strauss. Composed in 1882, Strauss' Voices of Spring Waltz has been captivating audiences ever since. The Voices of Spring Waltz was written to include a soprano solo - most likely for Bianca Bianchi, a talented and well known coloratura soprano during the time of Strauss. However, its Viennese debut was ill received. It wasn't until the waltz was performed in Russia that it gained its much deserved attention. Soon thereafter, Strauss transcribed the Voices of Spring Waltz for piano. His newly revised work garnered him critical acclaim; its fame reaching far beyond Vienna.
