Kálmán, Die Csárdásfürstin Alfred Eschwé Volksoper Wien

Content

Even more than a hundred years after its premiere (1915), this popular album of the silver operetta era is still attractive. Like no other work, Emmerich Kálmán's work stands for the end of the Danube monarchy and the silver Viennese operetta era with its waltz tradition. Director and text editor Peter Lund gives new impetus to the bittersweet love story on the verge of the war catastrophe: "What do you do when Prince Edwin's connection with a chansonette shakes the honour of the family, asks castle lord Lippert-Weylersheim? And how should one deal with it when a well-kept secret of the lady of the house comes to light?
