Tune of the Day: The New Vienna Waltz
for three flutes
This waltz for three flutes is taken from Blake's Young Flutist's Magazine, published in Philadelphia in 1833. The origins of the piece are unfortunately unknown, but it is clearly unrelated to the waltz of the same name (Neu Wien in German) by Johann Strauss II, which was only written in 1870.
