Franz LEHÁR
Born Komoron, Hungary April 30, 1870: Died Bad Ischl, Austria October 24, 1947
In the course of over 35 years' composition, Franz Lehár enriched the musical theatre repertoire with over 30 works ranging from the sparkling gaiety of the pre-1914 era (The Merry Widow and The Count of Luxembourg) to the tragic sensuality of his later works such as Frederica and Giuditta.
Though many of the these works are often performed in the original German language only a few have had their due recognition in English.
