"Komm Zigány" is a popular operetta aria composed by Emmerich Kálmán. The piece was composed in 1910 and premiered in Vienna, Austria in the same year. The aria is part of the operetta "Grafin Mariza" and is sung by the character Tassilo, a Hungarian nobleman who has fallen in love with the titular character, Countess Mariza. The aria is divided into three movements, each with its own distinct characteristics. The first movement is a slow and melancholic introduction, with Tassilo singing about his love for Mariza and his longing to be with her. The second movement is a lively and upbeat dance, with Tassilo singing about his Hungarian heritage and his love for music and dance. The third movement is a passionate and emotional finale, with Tassilo declaring his love for Mariza and his willingness to do anything to be with her. The characteristics of "Komm Zigány" are typical of Kálmán's style, which blends elements of Hungarian folk music with classical operatic techniques. The piece is known for its catchy melodies, lively rhythms, and emotional intensity, and has become one of the most popular operetta arias of all time. The aria has been performed by countless singers and orchestras around the world, and has been featured in numerous films, television shows, and stage productions.
