Die Csárdásfürstin is a Hungarian-German operetta adaptation of the Budapest Operetta Theater by Miklós Szinetár from 1971 with Anna Moffo in the title role. It is based on the operetta Die Csárdásfürstin by Emmerich Kálmán , which premiered in 1915 and is considered to be his most important stage work. In contrast to the 20 years older version of the Csardasfürstin , which was a very free adaptation of the material, this television adaptation follows the literary and musical specifications of the original much more closely.
action
While the Hungarian chansonnière Sylva Varescu , who is celebrated as Csárdásfürstin , is preparing for her American tour, the Viennese prince's son Edwin von Lippert-Weylersheim makes her a marriage promise. Count Boni Kancsianu thwarted this by sending her the announcement of Edwin's engagement with his cousin Stasi. Sylva leaves Budapest for her tour. At the Stasi and Edwin's engagement party, Boni and Sylva appear unannounced, whom he introduces as his wife. During the celebration, however, the Stasi and Boni meet, and Sylva and Edwin also make up. After it turns out that Edwin's mother, Princess Marie-Louise, used to be a well-known chansonnière herself, nothing stands in the way of the parents' approval of this apparent mesalliance .
