Further Information |
Das Spitzentuch der Konigin was a huge success in Vienna and New York in the 1880s but was never presented in London. Many of its tunes are now well-known to us, as Strauss later re-used them in his famous orchestral waltzes. ‘Roses of the South’ is just one of the many well-loved melodies contained within the show’s sparkling score.
