Overview (English):

Wiener Blut & Eine Nacht in Venedig is a splendid collection of Johann Strauss operettas, beautifully performed by an ensemble of celebrated vocalists including Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Nicolai Gedda, and Erich Kunz, among others. The operettas include the famous Wiener Blut and Eine Nacht in Venedig, and showcase Strauss's mastery in waltz music and light-hearted operetta melodies. The album highlights the charm and wit of Viennese operetta, mixing elegance with humorous societal commentary, all wrapped in graceful orchestral arrangements.

The operetta Wiener Blut was a posthumous compilation of Strauss's melodies, expertly arranged by Adolf Müller, and is regarded as one of the best adaptations of Strauss's work, with its main waltz becoming an iconic piece. Eine Nacht in Venedig celebrates the Venetian carnival with its vibrant tunes and captivating story of romantic intrigue. Both works are accompanied by the esteemed Philharmonia Chorus and Orchestra of London, conducted by Otto Ackermann, bringing these operettas to life with vivid expression.
