Komische Oper Berlin: Paul Abrahams „Viktoria und ihr Husar“

In September 1930 the audience at the Metropoltheater in Berlin, today’s Komische Oper, raved over Viktoria und ihr Husar. Paul Abraham had achieved a pulsating operetta coup which included, alongside csárdás and jazz, such evergreens like “Ja, so ein Mädel, ungarisches Mädel, geht nicht aus dem Schädel”. In Cologne the titillating tales surrounding the cavalry officer Stefan Koltay will be presented in concert form. This operetta is one of the works with which the Director of Berlin’s Komische Oper, Barrie Kosky, has once again made his house one of the world’s leading operetta stages today.
