Composed in 1924, this immensely popular operetta, exemplifies Kálmán's ability to successfully incorporate Hungarian motifs into the traditional Viennese light opera.
One of the finest examples of the genre, this work features interesting solo parts for tenor and soprano, a skillfully-crafted, colorful orchestral score, as well as an engaging story line. Known for his attractive, fluent melodies, Kálmán, who studied composition at the National Hungarian Royal Academy of Music (his classmates included Bartók and odály), always drew on the rich musical tradition of Hungary.
