Josef Lanner , who was born near Vienna in 1801, has always been considered the father of the waltz. He wrote a quantity of very delightful dance music, particularly waltzes, some of which are still as popular as ever they were. He not only wrote these tunes, but formed a band to play them, so successfully that Lanner and his 
Band toured the Continent for years and were welcome in every city in Europe. 
One of the first men he engaged for his little orchestra was a viola player of the name of Johann Strauss ; this was Johann the elder, and in a short time Strauss began writing dance music himself and formed his own band. 
He was more successful even than Lanner, and his career reads like a romance. Of his three sons, Johann, Josef, and Kduard, the first is the most famous, though they were all inexhaustible composers of dance tunes. Johann the younger is, indeed, the most famous of the whole family.
