Title NameTritsch Tratsch Polka
Marketing CopyTritsch-Tratsch-Polka, Op. 214 was written in 1858 after a successful tour of Russia where he performed in the summer concert season at Pavlovsk, Saint Petersburg. It was first performed in a concert in Vienna on 24 November 1858. Tritsch-Tratsch (chit-chat) refers to the Viennese passion for gossip. Strauss may also have been referencing the burlesque Der Tritschtratsch by the famous Austrian dramatist and actor Johann Nestroy, which premiered in 1833 and was still in the stage repertoire when the polka was written. The mood of the piece is jaunty and high-spirited, as were many of Strauss' polkas.
