Nowadays, who knows Emile Waldteufel ? It would seem that what is true for a good number of songs is also true for his waltzes: they remain etched in our memories but, at the same time, prove to be so perfect, so simple, their melody so evident that we are not terribly concerned with knowing who wrote them, suppose that they are not attributed to… Johann Strauss who was his strict contemporary! Righting such a wrong is therefore the goal that I have set myself, concerned with paying him the tribute he deserves, however tardily.
