Wiener Philharmoniker Fanfare information

The Wiener Philharmoniker Fanfare Op. AV 109, also known as Vienna Philharmonic Fanfare, is a fanfare for brass instruments written by Richard Strauss.

The fanfare was written for the Vienna Philharmonic orchestra to be performed at a ball to mark their 40th anniversary on 4 March 1924.^[1] It was the first benefit ball that had been held for the orchestra and was intended to raise money for the orchestra's pension fund.^[2] It was played as honoured guests arrived at the ball.^[2] The original manuscript of the piece is in the archives of the Vienna Philharmonic. It was dedicated by Strauss to the orchestra.^[1] The piece is opus number AV 109 in Trenner and Ott's catalogue of Strauss's works.^[1]

The piece was arranged by Hans Heinz Scholtys for the Trompeterchor der Stadt Wien for 10 trumpets, 6 trombones, 2 tubas and 3 timpani.^[1]

It was played at the Coronation of Charles III and Camilla in May 2023 immediately after Charles's crowning.^[3]

The musicologist Barbara Heninger described the piece as demonstrating Strauss's "affinity for striking brass textures" and "short but stirring".^[2]
