On October 13, 1894 the ballet "Rund um Wien" by Josef Bayer was performed in the Vienna Court Opera in order to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the musician life of Johann Strauss junior. After that, this work continued being performed at the Vienna Court Opera over 64 times till 1906. But the ballet may have been revised after the premiere, because of the vulnerability of the story. In fact, the Austrian National Library posesses the three handwriting scores of the ballet. By solving the genealogy of sources, the author got the proofs that the ballet was revised after the premiere. It is concluded that "Rund um Wien" was revised several times. By revisions, the whole work became shorter and the scene where Strauss's motifs were quoted was especially reduced 30 percent.
