Description:
Johann Strauss wrote the bubbling 'Champagne Polka' for his 1858 summer concert season in Pavlovsk, where its first performance took place on 12 August under the title of 'Ball-Champagner-Polka'. Strauss obviously took great delight in weaving into the Trio section the refrain from Johann Fuß's popular tavern-song of the day: 'Mir is's alles an's, mir is's alles an's, Ob i a Geld hab oder kan's!' (What do I care, what do I care, whether I've money or not!).
