Swirling vortex of color and the words: "Johann Strauss' Tale(s) from the Vienna (Woods) Artie Shaw & Orchestra" by Kansas artist Clarke Blocher Unframed. Image, 18.07"H x 16"W.
"Tales from the Vienna Woods" is a waltz by Johann Strauss II. Composed in 1868, "Geschichten aus dem Wienerwald", Op. 325, was one of six Viennese waltzes by Johann Strauss II which featured a virtuoso part for zither. The title of Strauss' dance recalls the folk music of the inhabitants of the Vienna Woods.
