Johann Strauss Orchestra

The Johann Strauss Orchestra is a renowned pops orchestra founded by André Rieu in the Netherlands in 1987. The orchestra is celebrated for its lively performances of classical music, often incorporating humor and antics into their shows. They have toured extensively across Europe, North America, Japan, and Australia, and have won several awards, including two World Music Awards. Their recordings have achieved significant success, going gold and platinum in many countries. The orchestra's performances often feature a mix of classical, popular, and folk music, and they have been broadcast on networks like Sky Arts and PBS.

The orchestra's name pays homage to Johann Strauss II, known as the "Waltz King," and reflects their focus on waltz music.

They frequently collaborate with guest artists and have become a staple in the classical crossover genre.
