Kálmán: Gräfin Mariza & Die Csárdásfürstin

Enchanting operetta delights: From the very start, Emmerich Kálmán scored brilliant successes with his operettas Countess Maritza and The Gypsy Princess, catching the mood of the early years after World War I with the longing for happy endings and the good old days. Above all, it is the ardent “Magyar spice”, the yearning waltzes and the quick-fire humour of the entertaining buffo numbers that delight audiences to this day.
