Programme notes: The summer of 1866 brought the defeat of the Austrian army at Königgrätz. The subsequent peace agreement meant a loss of territory for Austria and the rise of Prussia to the dominant power in Europe. In his waltz "Friedenspalmen", Joseph Strauß hints above all at the prevailing war fatigue among the population at the time. The title page of the piano edition shows an angel holding a branch of a palm tree. The waltz is characterized by melancholy on the one hand and joy at life returning to normal on the other.
