Description:
Geschichten aus dem Wienerwald (Tales from the Vienna Woods), composed by Johann Strauss II in 1868, is a patriotic masterpiece that praises the beauty of the Vienna Woods. This icon of Viennese music is frequently performed at the New Year's Concert given by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. Geschichten aus dem Wienerwald features the zither, a musical instrument native to Austria and its neighbours. If no zither is available, a double reed ensemble or saxophone ensemble can be substituted in this band transcription.
