Furioso Polka, Johann Strauss II arr. Christian Jenkins. Brass Band

Furioso Polka

Austrian composer Johann Strauss II (1825-1899), is well known for his prodigious output of waltzes, polkas and operettas. He was also a notable violinist and conductor, and made many tours, particularly of London and the USA. He was the son of Johann Strauss I, and collaborated in a few works with his composer brother, Josef.

Furioso Polka is perhaps one of Strauss's lesser-known polkas, but it is certainly one of the most exciting. It was composed in 1862, while Strauss lived in Vienna.
