He was to Germany as what Johann Strauss Jr was to Austria. Beautiful Spring is a typical Lincke Waltz with its irresistible melodies: from the main slow waltz that opens the set, reprised in the coda and forms the melodic basis for the grand exuberant finale, to a couple of playful, scherzo like sections, and a haunting, sentimental slow waltz, that is reprised in the coda leading to the grand finale.
