Emmerich Kálmán, together with Lehár and Strauss, is one of the most prominent representatives of the Viennese operetta, which is associated with his most famous works: Princess Čardášová (1915), Countess Marica (1924) and Circus Princess (1926). The strength of Kálmán's compositions lay mainly in the ability to adapt a folk element to the environment of the operetta, especially in the form of a cardas. It was this dance that perfectly suited the operetta manager and became Kálmán's specialty. At the same time, he was able to expand his means of expression with elements of exotics (popular not only in the operetta genre) or jazz. Countess Marica is associated with the later period of Kálmán's work. It was named "the most Hungarian operetta" and is one of the last major classics in its genre. Dejovo transports us to the Hungarian estate of the beautiful and rich Countess Marice until the beginning of the 20th century. This is where Count Tasilo, who is impoverished, is hired as an administrator. He wants to make money on his sister's dowry. As usual, love erupts among young people, but it is complicated by several knots and vicissitudes, but in the end the story ends happily. In Theatri an der Wien, where it premiered, people went crazy: every single musical issue of the work became a hit.
