Johann Strauss (Sohn)

    October 25, 1825 – June 3, 1899

    Johann Strauss II was an Austrian composer who became a pivotal figure in 19th-century Viennese music. He is primarily celebrated for his ability to craft captivating dance music and operettas that encapsulate the spirit of his era. His compositions are characterized by melodic ingenuity and rhythmic verve, earning him the moniker "The Waltz King." Strauss masterfully composed music that celebrated life and movement, and his works continue to resonate with joy and elegance.
