Writing to his brother, Eduard, on Saturday 2 April 1892, Johann Strauss remarked: "I have sketched a new pizzicato-polka for your concerts in Hamburg. It is this time made slightly more interesting, in accordance with current taste (without really being suited to a concert performance with regard to the musical content). It allows an affected manner of performance - the main thing in a pizzicato number. For where there is no 'singing-tone', a success can only lie, I must admit, in a coquettish performance - since neither piano nor forte offer sufficient variety in such an unusual piece ....." The polka was later inserted as the Act 3 entr'acte in Johann's operette Fürstin Ninetta (1893), where it seems to have been used for the children's ballet sequence.
