Here are the sheets if you want to have a go.

Alfred Grunfeld wrote a few Strauss transcriptions.

Rather delightful.

I have not played that one in particular, but have played his "Emporers Waltz".

Grunfeld is a good start if you want to play Strauss Transcriptions and have not done so before, because they are a hell of a lot easier then Friedman, Dohnanyi and the like.

The Godowsky-Strauss transcriptions are for supermen.
