The programme at the Platform has a number of works by the Strauss family, such as ‘The Blue Danube’, ‘Excursions Polka’, ‘Vienna Blood’, ‘Tales from Vienna Woods’ and the ‘Persian March’, as well as works by their associates from the same period, including Suppe’s sparkling overture ‘Beautiful Galatea’, ‘Wiener Cafe’ by Robert Stolz of musicals fame, a military march and Waldteufels beautiful ‘Pomone’ waltz.

The PCO likes to introduce a fitting but not Viennese work, and this is by English composer Haydn Wood, his orchestrated ‘Joyousness Waltz’.
