The Great Waltz

The Great Waltz is a musical that uses themes by Johann Strauss I and Johann Strauss II, with lyrics and musical adaptation by Robert Wright and George Forrest in the 1970 stage revival and the 1972 film. The original stage production featured lyrics by Desmond Carter while the 1938 film had a new book and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. The story of the show is loosely based on the real-life feud between the older and younger Strauss, allegedly because of the father's jealousy of his son's greater talent.
