André Rieu - Emperor Waltz by Johann Strauss
André Rieu performs the 'Emperor Waltz' by Johann Strauss in Maastricht, Netherlands and at Schoenbrunn Palace, Vienna, Austria.
The Schoenbrunn Palace footage features dancers from the famous Austrian Elmayer Dancing School.
Kaiser-Walzer, Op. 437 (Emperor Waltz) is a waltz composed by Johann Strauss II in 1889.
The waltz was originally titled 'Hand in Hand' and was intended as a toast made in August 1889 by Austrian emperor Franz Josef on the occasion of his visit to the German Kaiser Wilhelm II where it was symbolic as a 'toast of friendship' extended by Austria to Germany.
Strauss' publisher, Fritz Simrock, suggested the title, since it could allude to either monarch, and thus satisfy the vanity of both rulers.
