The Johann II’s highly-successful 2nd-last operetta: Waldmeister (Woodruff 車葉草) was first performed on December 4, 1895 at the Theater an der Wien. • Waldmeister: Ouvertüre It was given 88 performances, and was much admired by Johannes Brahms, a friend of the composer.
Interestingly, Johann II’s Berlin publisher, Bote & G. Bock, published two (2) different versions of the Piano Score of the Waltz op.463. The main differences are in the Waltz 1B and in the Waltz 2B as follows:
1st version: 1B (Act I no.2 Lied) 2B (Act II no.9b Terzett)
2nd version: 1B (Act II no.14 Finale) 2B (Act I no.2 Lied)
Apparently, the 1st version Piano Score was compiled by the Publisher. Johann II complained about the selection of the music (Act II no.9b Terzett Gemässigtes [Moderate] walzer-tempo) for the Waltz 2B as “This music is only possible as a “Polka Mazurka” (Johann II means “SLOWer 3/4 Tempo”). If you play the music as a Waltz, the entire Waltz would be “spoiled”! (Johann II’s letter to the Publisher dated 12/8/1895). After his rejection of the Publisher’s 1st version, Johann II himself prepared the orchestral score of the Waltz (2nd version) to be played at the incoming Eduard’s Sunday Concert (12/15/1895). The orchestral parts (2nd version) were published in February 1896. The publisher eventually published the 2nd version of the Piano Score in 1897, which differs from the Johann II’s Autograph score in many spots: Especially the Publisher used the same Introduction and the Coda of the 1st version in the 2nd version.

Two (2) other autograph scores have also survived, suggesting that Johann II himself made arrangements and orchestration of the rest of the dance music (op.464, op.465, op.466, op.467, and op.468) from WALDMEISTER: • Johann Strauss II : Wa...
