Probably not full volume. I want to be able to hear it when I'm 89. 
Not bad for an old tune.

My favourite Strauss waltz is Tales From The Vienna Woods:

It has a beautiful part played by a zither:

The passage played by the zither feels like sunlight feeding my soul. Just before the zither, you can hear the birds chirping.
My family often played this waltz when I was very small. I can't remember that they played it, but I recognised the music the first time I heard it as an adult so they must have played it when I was very small.
