50 Years Vienna Johann Strauss OrchestraThe Vienna Johann Strauss Orchestra can rightly call itself one of the most authentic ensembles in the interpretation of the music of the Strauss dynasty. in 1966, almost 120 years after Johann Strauss (father) founded the Strauss Orchestra, the great demand for high-quality interpretations of light music led a group of Viennese musicians who belonged to the small ensemble of the Austrian Radio Orchestra to found the Vienna Johann Strauss Orchestra. The declared goal was to cultivate the music of the Strauss dynasty and the so-called "light" Viennese music. The orchestra consisted of 42 musicians - an orchestra size that, according to reliable sources, was also preferred by members of the Strauss family. The orchestra is now celebrating its 50th birthday with this festive concert in the great hall of the Vienna Musikverein.
