Strauss 200 – All Waltz!

Sunday, 14/09/2025 / 11:00 AM - 01:15 PM / Laeiszhalle (Großer Saal)

Johann Strauss (son) was born into a musical family near Vienna on 25 October 1825 and became the first pop star in music history during his lifetime as the »Waltz King«. To mark his 200th birthday, the Kölner Männer-Gesang-Verein (KMGV) and the Hamburg Symphony Orchestra will be presenting original works for male choir by Johann Strauss (son) as well as his world-famous super hits and the most beautiful and lively melodies of his Viennese contemporaries – and of course a waltz or two... Following the performance of the world-famous »Fledermaus« as a Cologne musical at the Divertissementchen 2025 and two major concerts in Cologne in the summer, the KMGV will be returning to Hamburg for the first time since 2011. Together with the Symphoniker Hamburg, it builds a bridge between Rhenish joie de vivre, Viennese waltz bliss and Hanseatic cosmopolitanism.
