The music of Vienna! Light hearted, joy of life in what once was called the "Belle Epoque" and the musical heart of the city was certainly Johann Strauss II. Some fascinating Johann Strauss Rarities have been assembled for this album, interpreted and conducted by a man who was at home not only in Vienna but who was probably the most prolific conductor for this musical genre of his time: Max Schonherr not only conducted, but he truly "lived" this music. That's why he certainly deserves another place in our collection of "The great conductors" - All 13 tracks have been carefully remastered in 24 Bit High Definition.
