About Weinberger...
Josef Weinberger founded his publishing business in Vienna in 1885. Through
an association with Johann Strauss II, he began licensing performances of
Strauss' operettas. Licensing stage works has been a vital part of our work
ever since and the principal Viennese operetta composers are represented
in our catalogue: Strauss, Millöcker, Zeller, Kálmán, Oscar Straus, Stolz
and Fall. We have administered the copyrights of Franz Lehár for many
years for Lehár's own company, Glocken Verlag.
We have expanded into several other musical genres over the years: contemporary classical, light orchestral, educational, brass and military band, and religious. Our associated production music library, JW Media Music Ltd., is a leader in its field, while our sister companies in Vienna and Frankfurt have developed repertoire for their own respective markets.
Today, the theatre catalogue spans the century, from Viennese operettas to
British musicals of the 1990s. It spans the globe too, through our representation
for the UK and other European territories of the prestigious Broadway show
catalogues of Music Theatre International and the Rodgers & Hammerstein
Theatre Library. 1998 saw another development, our expansion into the arena
of the play with the acquisition of rights in the stage works of the Hungarian
playwright Ferenc Molnár.
