Le trio est dominé par un thème dans le registre ténor qui laisse sa place à un intermezzo dans lequel les cuivres conversent en alternance avec les bois. Le thème du trio revient de manière grandiose sur un chant ornementé aux bois.

It was written by the British composer Edward German and first published in 1890 while he was musical director of the Globe Theatre in London.

While French influences are clearly apparent in his music German was said to be a ‘stylistic cosmopolitan who wrote music that is quintessentially English’ (David Russell Hulme).

It was so acclaimed that it won a special award for an out of competition film at the 25th Academy Awards.

Wine Women and Song op. 333-À l’instar du Beau Danube bleu la valse Wein Weib und Gesang op. 333 ( Aimer boire et chanter 1869) a été composée à l’origine pour le Wiener Männergesangverein (Chœur d’Hommes de Vienne). Johann Strauss s’est inspiré d’une citation attribuée à Martin Luther « Qui n'aime point le vin les femmes ni le chant restera sot toute sa vie » (“Wer nicht liebt Wein Weib und Gesang der bleibt ein Narr sein Leben lang”).La version originale de Strauss s’ouvre avec un long passage d’ouverture de près de cent mesures ( Quasi religioso suivie d’un Allegro ) très rarement joué. Cette transcription pour Orchestre d’Harmonie en est égalementdépourvue mais débute néanmoins avec une introduction brillante ( Maestoso ) d’où se détache la première ligne mélodique qui revient plus tard dans le quatrième air de valse. Le premier thème représente la quintessence de l’art de vivre viennois ; Strauss s’appuie sur la chanson à boire Stoß an stoß an du Liebchen mein (“Trinquons ma bien-aimée”) extraite de son opérette Wiener Blut (Sang viennois) . Les trois airs qui suivent font également preuve de vivacité et d’élégance. Et bien entendu comme dans toutes les autres valses de concert le thème initial revient dans le passage de fin. Une courte cadence endiablée clôt l’œuvre.
