Mnozil Brass - Strauss

For more than thirty years now, these seven talented musicians have been moving back and forth between Johann Strauss and Frank Sinatra, between Shostakovich and Prince or even passionately from Schubert to their Queen cousins with the greatest of ease and their flashing wind instruments. But Strauss - who was adored by Brahms, Wagner and Verdi as well as the craftsmen and the girls from the suburbs (and even Gershwin) - was the forefather of nonchalant dalliance between the chairs. Strauss was the first to produce hits by the meter. He hired an arranger so that he could work faster and realized that, together with his brothers, he could reproduce his sound worldwide. He was the first to undercut E and U and became a mass phenomenon as the Waltz King - the cash registers never rang sweeter.
