Karl Michael Ziehrer (also spelled as Carl Michael Ziehrer) (1843 - 1922) was an Austrian composer. In his lifetime, he was one of the fiercest rivals of the Strauss family; most notably Johann Strauss II and Eduard Strauss. This is one of his beautiful compositions which we complimented with beautiful sceneries.
Born in Vienna, Ziehrer was taught music by Simon Sechter, a famous Viennese hat-maker. He was soon discovered by music publisher Carl Haslinger, one of Johann Strauss II's publishers, who had fallen out with Strauss regarding the receipts from the latter's lucrative Russian venture.

The polonaise (Polish: polonez, chodzony; Italian: polacca) is a slow dance of Polish origin, in 3/4 time. Its name is French for "Polish."
The polonaise had a rhythm quite close to that of the Swedish semiquaver or sixteenth-note polska, and the two dances have a common origin.
