Comments: "Waves of the Danube" (German: Donauwellen; French: Flots du Danube) is a waltz and one of the most famous Romanian tunes in the world. In the USA it is frequently referred to as "The Anniversary Song", a title given by Al Jolson when he and Saul Chaplin released an adaptation of the song in 1946.
