Composer:Fred RaymondGenre:OperaStyle:OperettaAverage_duration:93:33"Maske in Blau" is a German operetta composed by Fred Raymond. The plot revolves around a love triangle between a composer, a singer, and a countess. The story takes place in a hotel in the Austrian Alps, where the composer, Armand Brissard, is staying with his friend, the singer Juliska. The countess, Gräfin Dubarry, arrives at the hotel and immediately catches the eye of both Armand and Juliska. As the story unfolds, Armand and Juliska compete for the countess's affections, leading to a series of misunderstandings and comedic situations. Meanwhile, the hotel staff and guests are preparing for a masquerade ball, where the true identities of the characters are revealed. "Maske in Blau" was composed in 1937 and premiered in Berlin the same year. The operetta was a huge success and quickly became one of the most popular works in the German-speaking world. The music is characterized by its catchy melodies, lively rhythms, and romantic themes. The operetta is divided into three acts, each with its own set of musical numbers. The first act introduces the characters and sets the stage for the love triangle. The second act features the masquerade ball, where the characters don masks and costumes to conceal their identities. The third act resolves the conflicts and ends with a happy ending for all. "Maske in Blau" is known for its memorable songs, including "Ich liebe alle Frauen" ("I Love All Women"), "Komm, Zigan" ("Come, Gypsy"), and "Schau einer schönen Frau nie zu tief in die Augen" ("Never Look Too Deeply into the Eyes of a Beautiful Woman"). The music is a blend of traditional operetta styles with elements of jazz and popular music. Overall, "Maske in Blau" is a lighthearted and entertaining operetta that showcases Fred Raymond's talent for melody and orchestration. Its popularity has endured over the years, and it remains a beloved work in the operetta repertoire.More....
