Opus 211. Composed by Johann Strauss Jr. Arranged by Douglas McLain. Baton Music orchestral series. Opus 211. Full score. Duration 2:30. Baton Music #BM565-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM565-SCORE).

Johann Strauss wrote the bubbling 'Champagne Polka' for his 1858 summer concert season in Pavlovsk, where its first performance took place on 12 August under the title of 'Ball-Champagner-Polka'. Strauss obviously took great delight in weaving into the Trio section the refrain from Johann Fuss's popular tavern-song of the day: "Mir is's alles an's, mir is's alles an's, Ob i a Geld hab oder kan's!" (What do I care, what do I care, whether I've money or not!).
