[Deutsch] Der Radetzky-Marsch ist ein von Johann Strauss (Vater) komponierter und dem Feldmarschall Josef Wenzel Graf Radetzky von Radetz gewidmeter Marsch. Die Uraufführung fand am 31. August 1848 am Wasserglacis in Wien statt. [English] Radetzky March is a march composed by Johann Strauss Sr. and dedicated to Field Marshal Joseph Radetzky von Radetz. First performed on 31 August 1848 in Vienna, it soon became quite popular among regimented marching soldiers. It has been remarked that its tone is more celebratory than martial; Strauss was commissioned to write the piece to commemorate Radetzky’s victory at the Battle of Custoza.
