There is something haunting about this music. It is of a time and place that was already disappearing with the end of the war.

This brought back many good memories of Vienna, thanks for uploading! I attended a WFDY gathering in Vienna, as an Observer, in 1959! I remember the opening line of our report was “This was the Vienna of The Third Man rather than that of Johann Strauss”!

@TheBenny402 Wie dauert nicht so lang? Das habe ich nicht verstanden. Gibt es unterschiedliche Versionen? Im Film wird der Titel nicht ausgespielt meines Wissens nach.
