Description:
The result of a collaboration between Johann Strauss II and his brother Josef Strauss, the PIZZICATO POLKA, IJS 335, was composed for a trip to Russia in 1869. His Italian audiences particularly loved it, and as a result, he included it in every performance he conducted there. Scored for plucked strings, the three-minute work often appears on the concert programs of New Year Galas. Instrumentation: String Orchestra (8.8.5.5.5 in set).
