Description:
Uniquely, the BAUERN-POLKA (POLKA FRANÇAISE), Op. 276 by Johann Strauss II (1825-1899) included a singing part for chorus, which was quickly picked up by its first audience. The premiere took place at a Pavlovsk charity concert on August 29, 1863. Its initial popularity led Tsar Alexander II to request a performance. Today, the choral part is generally sung by members of the orchestra. Instrumentation: 1+Picc.2.2.2: 4.2.1.0: Timp.Perc(1): Str (9.8.7.6.5 in set): Mx Chor (opt.): Pno Cond Sc in set.
