Brahms Brahms greatly admired the music of Johann Strauss and may possibly have written his two sets of Love-song Waltzes from a desire to compete with the master on his own ground. Although he took the simple Austrian country-dances for his model rather than the sophisticated Viennese waltz he followed Strauss in his methods of extracting the maximum rhythmic variety from the unvarying three-four pulse, and he paid a compliment to the great waltz-king by quoting, in the ninth waltz of this, the first set, a bar from 'The Blue Danube.' There are eighteen waltzes in all; the poems are by Friedrich Daumer. Deryck Cooke
