Welcome to our new website

The Society exists to promote the music of the Strauss Family and its musical contemporaries.

If you enjoy the pleasure of a Viennese ball, or like concerts, or in fact anything about the music, then The Johann Strauss Society of Great Britain is the society you may be looking to join to keep up to date with the latest concerts, shows, CDs and DVDs and events in the UK, and much more. We have a regular newsletter and magazine for our members, and you can join for a very modest fee.

The Johann Strauss Society of Great Britain was formed in 1964 with the objective of furthering the discovery and performance of the music of the Strauss family and friends. The Society's interests cover the whole spectrum of Viennese and related light classical music and operetta in all forms to suit all ages and tastes. We have overseas members from many countries inside and outside Europe, particularly the United States and Canada. For more detailed information on the Society please go to the about us page.

Our sister site www.viennese-music-library.com lists many of the orchestral parts available from us, but the Society actually holds far more than is shown. Please refer to FAQs for more information.
