ERIKA KÖTH & RUDOLF SCHOCK: LIVE-Highlights from Kálmán's 'Veilchen vom Montmartre' on 19.4.1959.

Conductor: KURT EICHHORN Rather surprisingly: an authentic - Viennese - song selection from the "almost forgotten" Kálmán operetta 'Violet of Montmartre' as grand finale of a "Sunday concert" from Munich. Erika Köth sings Violetta, Rudolf Schock Raoul (Eugène?) Delacroix. The Munich Broadcast Orchestra is playing. In 1930 successful premieres took place in Vienna and afterwards Berlin. Still in 1930 the Americans were rushing ahead to perform the work under the title 'Paris in Spring', and in 1932 Paris and London were introduced to the operetta. Up to the present day I signalize performances in the USA (Ohio 2004), Belgium (Kortrijk 2017), Ukraine (Kiev 2016 & 2018), Russia (Moskow and Saint Petersburg 2012), Estonia and Latvia. Hereby is striking the great popularity of 'Violet of Montmartre' in Eastern Europe (on YouTube too!). In Germany, Austria and Hungary the work seems to be forgotten except 'Heut' Nacht...', which although could NOT be heard in Vienna. The song turned out to a hit in the Berlin premiere: 'Heut' Nacht hab'ich geträumt von dir/This night I dreamed of you...'. This song is NOT in this selection from Munich 1959! However, in the meanwhile I uploaded it separate on YouTube: LINK    • RUDOLF SCHOCK: "Heut' Nacht hab' ich ...  .
