Comment

Otto M. Schwarz is not only a composer of symphonic music, but he also composes for films and documentaries. This is the genre in which Pictures of Vienna for string orchestra were written, depicting various sights, events, or characters from Vienna’s golden age. By writing this work as if composed in that time, the composer has created an immediate link to the era. Who has not heard of Empress Elisabeth of Austria? Wife of Emperor Franz Joseph I she became world famous posthumously, especially through the ‘Sissi’ films and the musical Elisabeth.
