Durch's Telephon (Polka) - Johann Strauss

'Durch's Telephon' (via the 'telephone') is a polka Johann Strauss composed in 1890 for the annual ball for 'Concordia', the Viennese authors and journalists association. The title - Durch's Telephon - refers to the fact that in an technological age, journalists could now report their information no longer using a telegraph or typewriter, but via the phone.
