1 September 2024 - 30 August 2025

In honor of the 200th birthday of Johann Strauss, the exhibition in the Salon Bösendorfer at the Vienna Musikverein sheds light on the long-standing friendship between the waltz and operetta composer Johann Strauss Sohn (1825-1899) and the Viennese piano maker Ludwig Bösendorfer (1835-1919). Photos, newspaper clippings and letters document this time.

The piano master Ludwig Bösendorfer and Johann Strauss knew each other from the social scene and even had the same publisher in the late 1850s. But it was not until 40 years later that their acquaintance would develop into a friendship. Johann Strauss composed the waltz 'Rathaus-Ball-Tänze op. 438' for the City of Vienna's first ball to mark the opening of the City Hall ballroom in 1890. Bösendorfer congratulated Strauss in a letter on the “brilliant Rathaus waltz”. Strauss thanked him and invited Bösendorfer to a game of tarot. A close friendship developed. For Strauss' 71st birthday on October 25, 1896, Ludwig Bösendorfer gave him a 186 cm long grand piano, which can be seen today in the Johann Strauss apartment at Praterstraße 54.
