A very prolific author with his thirty operettas, Franz Lehár is known almost exclusively for the ‘verve’ and the rich melodic and rhythmic invention of The Merry Widow. This masterpiece owes its fortune to a series of factors that are reconciled in the course of the operetta and that enhance each other. First of all, the nature of the story brings together in harmony around a single issue (the inheritance), a series of classic themes such as money, love, jealousy and loyalty. A further element is the dance that makes the action particularly ‘smooth’. It is not just about offering a choreographic opportunity (accompanied by different types of costumes) but through the dance the story evolves and the relationships between the characters are transformed. The dance also expresses the character of the protagonists and of the situations and describes the evolution of the psychological climate. Because of this prominence of the dance, according to some The Merry Widow is part of the Tanzoperette genre, even though this definition does not consider the actual density of the score which gathers together wonderful melodic pages and an elegant use of the orchestra.
