"The Anti-Strauss" is probably the most unconventional hommage to Johann Strauß ever written, in honour of his 200th birthday. This piece takes two of his most popular melodies, the "Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka" in the first part, and "The Beautiful Danube" in the second, and literally turns them upside down and shifts them to minor, so pretty much into the exact opposite of the original. The result is a four-minute virtuoso piano-piece that condenses Strauß' colourful instrumentation into a single instrument.
Also available for organ.
