About

From the exuberance of a Viennese ballroom and the Strauss family to the rarefied atmosphere of a Parisian salon and Chopin, to the magic of opera and ballet, and much more, this treasure trove of waltzes performed by some of the world’s greatest artists is a glorious reminder of the world’s most enduring dance.

The set comprises of 6 CDs presented in a stylish capbox with gold foiling accompanied by a 16-page booklet with an introductory note and composer images/illustrations.
