Roland Petit’s ballet, freely adapted from the operetta of the same name, is a true dance spectacle set to well-known and much-loved melodies by Johann Strauss (son) and is returning to the stage of the Vienna State Opera in time for the Strauss Year 2025.
In addition to music from the operetta Die Fledermaus, conductor and arranger Douglas Gamley used the following compositions by Johann Strauss (son) to compose the music for Roland Petit’s Die Fledermaus: the fast polkas Leichtes Blut and Unter Donner und Blitz, the march Es war so wunderschön, the waltzes Wo die Zitronen blüh'n, Neu Wien, Künstlerleben and Wiener Bonbons, the polka française Etwas Kleines, the polka Mazur Waldine and the overture to Eine Nacht in Venedig. In addition, the waltzes Dorfschwalben aus Österreich and Sphärenklänge by Josef Strauss as well as the Pizzicato Polka by Johann and Josef Strauss were included in the score.(Source: wiener-staatsoper.at)
