Opus 417. Composed by Johann Strauss Jr. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music orchestral series. Opus 417. Full Score and set of parts. Baton Music #BM895-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM895-SET).

The music for Johann Strauss' Operetta 'Der Zigeunerbaron' is regularly performed today. The orchestral pieces that Strauss furnished from the work were also well-recognised, among them, the sparkling 'Schatz-Walzer' as well as the polka 'Brautschau' ('Looking for a Wife'). It features music from two of the operetta's most popular numbers: Zsupán's Act 1 aria 'Ja, das Schreiben und das Lesen' and the Act 2 trio 'Darum nur klopfe, klopfe, klopfe'. The polka's title derives from the Act 1 maidens' chorus, 'Hochzeitskuchen, bitte zu versuchen, kommt und schaut, hier die Braut!'.
