The Donauwalzer (Blue Danube waltz) is a Viennese Waltz composed by Johann Strauss (son) in 1867.

The Blue Danube waltz frequently is called the "inofficial hymn of Austria".

It is an essential item in the program of the Vienna New Year's Concert though officially it is only the second of three encores.
