Here is one of our 1905 Mira 18 1/2 inch Concert Grand console music boxes playing an old favorite of mine, "The Merry Widow" waltz or "Die Lustig Wittwe" from Franz Lehar's 1905 operetta of the same name. The operetta is based on a story about the efforts of an ambassador in Paris who tries to keep a rich widow and her fortune in the country by finding an acceptable local suitor for her. Regardless of the story, the song is absolutely lovely and has for many years been a favorite of mine to play on my phonographs and music boxes. I hope you enjoy this selection on our Mira music box here as much as I do and thanks for stopping in for a visit.
