Blue Danube

Hi Nicole,<BR>I've noticed that The Blue Danube is played excessively. Any reason for it? I like the piece myself but it is played way too often.<P>Also, your hour is my favorite part of the show. :>

As I sit here in my "Johann Strauß" t-shirt that I got in Vienna, I would like to say: The only reason they seem to play too much "Blue Danube" is because they don't play enough other pieces by Johann and nowhere near enough Josef Strauß.<P>Just my 2¢<p>[ 09-07-2001: Message edited by: dkm32 ]

Ooooh! Vienna! Color me green, 'cause I'm jealous.<P>My guess about a flood of The Beautiful Blue Danube is that it's requested a a lot.

I play the piece as I get requests for it! Send in a request during my shift and I'll play it for you, that's what I love about Beethoven Radio, we play your requests!
