The best version of "The Blue Danube" is the Schulz-Evler "Arabesques" for solo piano. I have a copy of the music just to admire and play with the first couple of pages (after the intro, which Sgouros here has omitted anyway, as did Lhevinne on the first recording I had of the piece, and Dad says he leaves it off when he plays it). To me, the Blue Danube isn't dull, because this is how I listen to it.
