Johann Strauss and VIenna: Operetta and the Politics of Popular Culture (Cambridge Studies in Opera) 
Camille Crittenden
Vienna has always been the jewel in the crown of the Habsburg monarchy, the seat of imperial power as well as the economic engine upon which the empire turned. The end of the nineteenth century saw historic changes in both the city's political infrastructure and its outward countenance. This urban transformation was accompanied by the development of a new and lasting musical genre, Viennese operetta. No composer was better suited than Johann Strauss to express his native city's pride and anxiety during this period. This book provides an overview of the inception and development of Viennese operetta, then takes Strauss's works as a series of case studies in the interaction between stage works and their audience. It also includes a consideration of Strauss's role as national icon during his lifetime and throughout the twentieth century. The book contains fascinating illustrations from the period as well as synopses of key operettas.
Hardcover 336 pages (September 21, 2000);  Publisher: Cambridge University Press;  Language: English;  ISBN: 0521771218.
