His Majesty Visits the Lehár Villa

It wasn't the Count of Luxembourg, but someone at least as famous as he is: Gérard Fritz Kaiser (alias Franz Josef) visited us at the Lehár Villa with his enchanted Françoise and their entire entourage.

The music was, unsurprisingly, by Ralph Petruschka. Gérard may not be a count, but he is, in fact, from Luxembourg.
