In honor of the recent 200th anniversary of the birth of Johann Strauss, Jr. on October 25, we'll enjoy several of the composer's greatest and most beloved works on this afternoon's Classical Music With Foley Schuler, including, the evocative Tales from the Vienna Woods, the beautiful Roses from the South and the iconic On the Beautiful Blue Danube, as well as a Maurice Ravel's stirring tribute to the Viennese waltz tradition of the Strauss family fame—and longing looking back at soon-to-be-vanished age—La Valse.
You can hear Foley Schuler's musical selections—and stories behind the music—every weekday afternoon from 1 until 4 on Blue Lake Public Radio.
