"New": Operetta fragments -> http://notes.tarakanov.net/opereta.htm

The name says it all - this operetta is certainly unbekannt (= unknown) and if it's schön (here = pretty, beautiful) you can find out yourself...

[just realizing it is the first contribution to this thread in 2010]

Until recently I had never heard or seen this name - he was a pianist who f.ex. edited some works of CPE Bach, and orchestrated some dances of Tausig - and wrote this piece whose title could be slightly misleading...

Ilona Eibenschütz is a "she" !

True, except this work is clearly by Albert Eibenschutz, the orchestrator of Tausig's Ungarische Zigeunerweisen, as Paolor said.
