"Associations". During the carnival of 1863, Josef Strauss had to fill in for his sick brother Johann, and he quickly composed all the new pieces for the trade balls. “Pepi” was apparently able to accomplish this enormous task without too much trouble, since even at the Industrialists Ball on 21 January 1863, held at the imperial Redoutensaal of the Hofburg, he was able to present the dedication waltz. The work was entitled Associationen; since it was the dedication piece for the Industrialists Ball, this title referred to business contacts rather than the association of thoughts and ideas. The reporter who covered the ball was able to state that the piece had received enthusiastic applause and had to be repeated. The score of the Associationen waltz was not published until the fall of 1863.
