On 2 February 1858 an ‘artists’ ball for all branches of art was held in the Sophiensaal establishment in Vienna, The dance music was provided by the Strauss Orchestra conducted by Johann Strauss II. He had been asked by the members of the ball’s organising committee to arrange a quadrille based on melodies by different composers to reflect the current concert season. Strauss accepted the commission and dedicated the desired quadrille to the artists for their ball. In fact this arrangement brings together all the catchiest tunes of the period. A Viennese quadrille consists of six sections, and in the following list the different musical themes are marked by raised numerals. Pantalon 1 u. 2 (Felix Mendelssohn: ‘Wedding March’ from the music to A Midsummer Night’s Dream); Pantalon3 (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: First subject of the first movement, Symphony no. 40 in G minor, K. 550); Été1 (Carl Maria von Weber: Oberon, Act II, no. 13, Rezia’s aria, ‘Huon!
