OPERETTA & MUSICAL HIGHLIGHTS

Franz von Suppé, together with Carl Millöcker and Johann Strauss, formed the triumvirate of the “Golden Vienna Operetta Heaven”. With Franz Lehár, Emmerich Kálmán and Nico Dostal, the “Silver Age” of the operetta was also provided with great composers.

Many of their melodies are evergreens and have achieved folk song status. Viennese operetta music was and is also very popular in America and at the beginning of the 20th century was involved in the creation of a new musical genre, the musical.

The theater district on New York's Broadway played a decisive role in the development of this genre. In this melting pot of different nationalities, different currents flowed into the first musicals.

The swing and jazz, French revues and music hall concerts as well as theater forms of the British immigrants, the vaudeville consisting of artistic numbers, characterize a musical in a modified form.

Classical composers such as Georg Gershwin and Leonard Bernstein have also embraced this unique genre. With excerpts from “Porgy and Bess”, the “West Side Story” and “My Fair Lady”, the musical highlights are guaranteed.
