Eine Nacht in Venedig

Synopsis

The operetta "Eine Nacht in Venedig" (A Night in Venice) was premiered in Berlin on 2 October 1883; barely a week later the Viennese were also able to celebrate the triumph of a new work by the "Waltz King." The music of this comic opera perfectly matches the merry, carefree mood of the action. Melodies such as "Komm in die Gondel," "Ach, wie so herrlich zu schau'n" and "Kommt, kommt, ihr holden Frauen!" are among the high points of the operetta. The stellar cast includes such eminent singers as Anton de Ridder, Sylvia Geszty, Trudeliese Schmidt and, as Ciboletta, Julia Migenes.
