LEHAR, Franz (1870-1948). Hungarian Composer of The Merry Widow .

Autograph Musical Quotation Signed ("F Lehar"), four bars from his operetta The Count of Luxemburg .

1 page oblong 8vo, written on a card, Vienna, 3 April 1924. 

An attractive quotation.

Lehar's most enduring operetta remains The Merry Widow but he once declared that his own favourite of all his works was The Count of Luxemburg , which he wrote five years later and was first perfomed in 1909.
