From the Operetta Gräfin Mariza. Arranged by Jos van de Braak. Baton Music vocal series. From the Operetta Grafin Mariza. Full score. Duration 7:00. Baton Music #BM644-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM644-SCORE).Emmerich Kalman (1882-1953) was a contemporary of BartA3k and Kodaly at the Budapest Academy of Music. He first coupled a career as a music critic with more conventionally serious composition, before, in 1908, turning his attention to the operetta. Grafin Mariza (Countess Mariza) is one of Kalman's most popular compositions. It's an operetta in three acts composed in 1924, with a libretto by Julius Brammer and Alfred Grunwald. It was premiered in Vienna on 28 February 1924 at the Theater an der Wien. Grafin Mariza, exemplifies Kalman's ability to successfully incorporate Hungarian motifs into the traditional Viennese light opera. The aria Komm, Zigany is sung by Count Tassilo at the very end of the first act. After an introduction full of melancholy the aria is followed by an arousing czardas.
