Description:
Künstlerleben (Artist's Life) op. 316 is a waltz written by Johann Strauss jr. in 1867, following closely on the success of the popular "The Blue Danube" waltz. The waltz was presented at the "Hesperus Ball" of the "Vienna Artists" Association" which was a well-known and influential society of which all three Strauss brothers were members. "Künstlerleben" was quickly heralded as a new "twin" of the Blue Danube and its popularity has since been retained in the classical music repertoire.
