What loves each other teases each other
What loves each other teases each other is a polka- française by Johann Strauss Sohn (op. 399). The work was performed for the first time on January 15, 1882 in the concert hall of the Wiener Musikverein .
Remarks
The polka was put together based on motifs from the operetta The Merry War . The work is thus part of a series of compositions (opus numbers 397 , 398 , 400 , 401 , 402 , 403 , 404 , 405 and 407 ) that take up all the themes from this operetta. In this polka, parts from the 3rd and 1st act were used. The world premiere took place as part of a concert by Eduard Strauss . However, Johann Strauss conducted it himself. A little later the polka could be heard again in the concert hall of the Vienna Musikverein at a benefit concert organized by Alexander D. Golz. The polka was also dedicated to this gentleman. Later it was somewhat forgotten and was rarely performed, if at all.
The playing time on the CD listed under itemization is 4 minutes and 12 seconds. This time can vary somewhat depending on the conductor's musical conception.
