Oscar Straus (composer)
Oscar Nathan Straus (6 March 1870 – 11 January 1954) was a Viennese composer of operettas and film scores and songs.
He also wrote about 500 cabaret songs, chamber music, and orchestral and choral works.
His original name was actually Strauss, but for professional purposes he deliberately omitted the final 's', since he wished not to be associated with the musical Strauss family of Vienna.
However, he did follow the advice of Johann Strauss II in 1898 about abandoning the prospective lure of writing waltzes for the more lucrative business of writing for the theatre.
The son of a Jewish family, he studied music in Berlin under Max Bruch, and became an orchestral conductor, working at the Überbrettl cabaret.
He went back to Vienna and began writing operettas, becoming a serious rival to Franz Lehár.
When Lehár's popular "The Merry Widow" premiered in 1905, Straus was said to have remarked "Das kann ich auch!"
(I can also do that!).
In 1939, following the Nazi Anschluss, he fled to Paris, where he received the honour of a Chevalier of the Légion d'honneur, and then to Hollywood.
After the war, he returned to Europe, and settled at Bad Ischl, where he died.
His grave is in the Bad Ischl Friedhof.
Straus' best-known works are "Ein WalzertraumA Waltz Dream"), and
"The Chocolate SoldierDer tapfere Soldat").
The waltz arrangement from the former is probably his most enduring orchestral work.
Among his most famous works is the theme from the 1950 film "La Ronde".
