Seven virtuosos combine classical, jazz, and pop with humor and precision. A unique concert full of energy, surprises, and masterful wind music—from Strauss to Queen.
Mnozil Brass, the Austrian brass ensemble, celebrates Johann Strauss, the Waltz King, with 'Strau$$'—charmingly exposing the boundaries between E- and U-music. For over thirty years, the seven musicians have blended classics like Schubert’s songs with pop hits by Queen or Frank Sinatra’s swing, always with a wink. In this program, they dedicate themselves to Strauss’ legacy: the waltz-intoxicated 'Duidu, Duidu' and its relaxed counterpart 'Dudidubidu,' which are only a 'warm embracing dance' apart. As a pioneer of entertainment music, Strauss, along with his brothers, early on undermined the division between high and popular culture—and became a mass phenomenon.
With choreography by Sharon Booth and commissioned for the Johann Strauss Year 2025 Vienna, Mnozil Brass presents an ironic-poetic exploration: What remains of Strauss’ secret to success when the myths are set aside? An evening full of musical surprises that celebrates the versatility of the composer and the creative energy of the ensemble.
