Traditionally played each year at the world famous New Year's Concerts in Vienna, this is the story of one of the most popular pieces of classical music.

The Blue Danube is in itself the expression of the universe of the waltz. None other than The Blue Danube can embody the essence of the waltz so eloquently and precisely in form and spirit. But can this alone suffice to explain the worldwide success of this waltz? Indeed not: the waltz is also popular for historical, diplomatic and political reasons.

The film will guide us through the origins of this musical piece, its history and how it was miraculously saved from disappearance. Enshrined in history, the Blue Danube only grows in popularity among experts and the greater public alike.
