The extensive 1949 national touring company of Sigmund Romberg's legendary operetta 'Blossom Time' masterfully adapted the immortal, romantic symphonic melodies of Franz Schubert into a traditional American musical-theater framework. The fictionalized biographical plot unfolds in turn-of-the-century Vienna, charting Schubert’s unrequited, heartbreaking love for a beautiful maiden and the creation of his famous Unfinished Symphony. This long-running touring edition brought the opulent, high-art vocal showmanship of the golden era to theatrical houses across North America, starring an elite operatic ensemble.
