Seventy years ago I fell in love with my violin – and Kalman, Lehar, Leo Fall and others.
What beautiful music ! Still love it. So I started collecting hundreds of records, tapes, DVDs , programmes and the history of Operetta. I hope someone in the future will be enchanted by these
wonderful composers, that have given such pleasure to the world. Bill. England.

Dear Operetta lovers,
From Hull, England. I fell in love with Viennese operetta age 11 ( in 1942) – when I started 10 years of violin tuition, although my teacher lived near me and listened, I should have been practicing Handel and Bach!! Lehar, Kalman, Leo Fall and the Strauss’s gave this world some beautiful SINGABLE music and now, although 100 years old, it still has massive appeal. Long may it please so many. In Britain there is a lamentable indifference in the professional theatre to producing any stage productions by these composers.
This contrasts with Bad Ischl, Vienna, Dresden etc. and indeed Hungary itself – birthplace of several superb composers. Please, dear Continental friends, keep this glorious music alive. I am listening to Fritz Wunderlich singing “Wien, mein Wien”right now. Best wishes, BILL of Hull, England
