Product Description

Die Fledermaus (The Bat) was Johann Strauss' most successful operetta and is still today frequently performed especially on German speaking  stages. Its overture in sonata form became also a popular and challenging concert piece. The operetta premiered, conducted by the composer, on  5 April 1874 in Vienna at "Theater an der Wien". The arrangement is one half tone higher than the original key of the composition for symphony  orchestra and was commissioned and first time performed by Mozarteum Wind Philharmonic Salzburg conducted by Hansjoerg Angerer at their  "Three Kings' Concert" on 6 January 2016 in the "Grosses Festspielhaus" (Large Festival Hall) in Salzburg, Austria, repeated there on 6 January  2020 and broadcasted live by Austrian television, when the arranger had to step in very shortly for the sick chief conductor Hansjoerg Angerer.  A live recording of the 2016 concert is available at  https://www.salzburg-windphilharmonic.at/de/wien-new-york-wiener-gschichten-aus-der-neuen-welt/ or https://www.jpc.de/jpcng/classic/detail/-/art/wien-new-york/hnum/10428731?iampartner=303&subid=umr6&ref=partner.jpc.de .
