OF the modern waltz. HIS compositions
are wOrld-rcuowned.

poser Of the "Fledermans," The
/ Merry War" "The Gypsy Baron" and
other light and fayorte operas. He IS
also composer of other weil-knoTn

ing on a new form tor the waltz.
The second son, Josef, was IN his
earlier years an engineer, bat took up
the baton in 1854. His death occurred
IN 1870.
The youngest son. Eduard, at first
desired 20 devote himself TO diplO-
matte career, but his love for music

the Strauss orchestra. and until 1870 ne
