Die Landstreicher
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Die Landstreicher is an operetta in one prologue and two Acts by Karl Michael Ziehrer. It was first performed on 29 June 1899 at the Summer Theatre "Venedig in Wien", which was just three weeks after the shocking death of Johann Strauss II. Despite the Viennese mourning for their beloved son, the operetta was especially noted for its 'Viennese' spirit and more so with Ziehrer himself conducting, the review from the press was unjustifiably favorable as Ziehrer was heralded as the new composer to usher a new spirit of the age.
