Johann Strauss- The Blue Danube (Piano Solo)

In my opinion, this is the best version of the Blue Danube for the piano. I hope you enjoy the song!

Johann Strauss- The Blue Danube (Piano version)

DESCRIPTION TAKEN FROM WIKIPEDIA PAGE:
Some of Johann Strauss' most famous works include "The Blue Danube", "Kaiser-Walzer", "Tales from the Vienna Woods", and the "Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka". Among his operettas, Die Fledermaus and Der Zigeunerbaron are the best known.

Later, in the 1870s, Strauss and his orchestra toured the United States, where he took part in the Boston Festival at the invitation of bandmaster Patrick Gilmore and was the lead conductor in a "Monster Concert" of over 1000 performers (see World's Peace Jubilee and International Musical Festival),[13] performing his "Blue Danube" waltz, amongst other pieces, to great acclaim.[13]

Johannes Brahms was a personal friend of Strauss; the latter dedicated his waltz "Seid umschlungen, Millionen!" ("Be Embraced, You Millions!"), Op. 443, to him.[19] A story is told in biographies of both men that Strauss's wife Adele approached Brahms with a customary request that he autograph her fan. It was usual for the composer to inscribe a few measures of his best-known music, and then sign his name. Brahms, however, inscribed a few measures from the "Blue Danube", and then wrote beneath it: "Unfortunately, NOT by Johannes Brahms."[20]

Thanks to 2001: A Space Odyssey this song always makes me think of docking spacecraft.

i agree with you Jason that this is the best version of this waltz on Youtube - not overcomplicated show-off mess but beautifully played great transcription for piano!. In my opinion when speed up by 1.25 it has similar tempo to Kleibers 1989 Neujahrskonzert interpretation which is just great. Thank you for uploading it!

I have to admit, I was never really into Strauss, but this is amazingly beautiful and very dreamy. I feel so happy and like dancing 🕺

Hasta hace unos días en alguna biografía he conocido a Johanns Strauss lo admiro por sus valses y me gusta mucho su rostro digno.
