The next Oeuvre is yours.

Ah! I was already on the right track: Oscar Straus wrote two relevant operettas, Der letzte Walzer and Ihr erster Walzer. Thanks, wiki !

My (only) New Year resolution was going to be to not even attempt to answer questions set by certain people until somebody else has done most of the hard work and/or sufficient clues have been extracted from the setter to bring it within my scope of competence. However, I've decided to put it into practice a day early
Happy New Year to all AA-coholics
