Remarks
At the premiere, prominent musicians such as B. Karl Goldmark , Johannes Brahms and Richard Heuberger are present. The waltz was very well received and also played a few weeks later in England with great success. It was also performed on May 30, 1895 at a concert at Buckingham Palace in the presence of Queen Victoria . The conductor of the performances in England was Eduard Strauss , the composer's brother. The playing time is about 12 minutes, depending on the musical opinion of the conductor.
