A Waltz Dream by Oscar Straus (another Symphony in White)

Oscar Nathan Straus (1870 – 1954) was a Viennese composer of operettas and film scores and songs. He also wrote about 500 cabaret songs, chamber music, and orchestral and choral works. His original name was actually Strauss, but for professional purposes he deliberately omitted the final 's', since he wished not to be associated with the musical Strauss family of Vienna. However, he did follow the advice of Johann Strauss II in 1898 about abandoning the prospective lure of writing waltzes for the more lucrative business of writing for the theatre.

Straus' best-known works are Ein Walzertraum (A Waltz Dream), and Der tapfere Soldat (The Chocolate Soldier) The waltz arrangement from the former is probably his most enduring orchestral work.
