A bandmaster and conductor of dance orchestras in Vienna, Ziehrer proved a strong rival to the surviving Strauss brother, Eduard. He wrote operettas and popular songs and was the last to hold the position of Hofballmusik-direktor – director of court ball music – at the Habsburg court.
Dance Music
Ziehrer was prolific in the production of dance music of all kinds. He wrote some 360 waltzes and other dances and around 70 marches.
