Franz Lehár’s “Die Lustige Witwe” is reputed to be one of the most famous operettas in the world. Under the direction of the French Jerome Savary's the “Merry Widow” sparkles. At the first staging of this production at the Opera-Comique in Paris (Octobre 2005), the singers appeared to be having as much fun as the audience. The Austrian Maestro Manfred Honeck presents his musical view on this operetta.

My dear dear Nana, Rest in Peace wherever you are. Each time I hear this Operetta I miss you so much. These are the very songs and music you so lovingly encouraged me to listen to in 1949; 1950; 1951; 1952 in Kamaryut house. How I wish you were with me. Bless you dear Nana. Sleep in Peace in Heaven. Your beloved grandson, Richard.

Es wird noch lange dauern bis diese Operette uebertroffen wird. Solche Harmonie gibt es seit langem nicht mehr.

Ne ho visto soltanto alcuni momenti per capire che questa è la solita rappresentazione messa in scena per stupire - e la sorpresa è solo stupida e inutile.
