Johann Strauss II


This will be the last composer we will study this school year.


Known as the "waltz king", Johann Strauss II's music is heard every year on new years eve in his hometown of Vienna, Austria. His father did not want him to be a composer, he wanted him to be a banker, but Johann was determined to be a musician, and become one of the most popular composers of the 19th century writing  more than 500 pieces of music.
