Blindekuh (Blind Man's Buff) is an operetta written by Johann Strauss II on a libretto by Rudolf Kneisel [de]. It was first performed in Vienna at the Theater an der Wien on 18 December 1878,[1] its composition delayed by the death of Strauss' wife, Jetty Treffz.[2] The overture was performed earlier at a charity event. The first run lasted sixteen performances,[3] followed by performances in Hungary. The overture established itself in the repertoire of many orchestras and is often performed nowadays.
