Im Prater blüh’n wieder die Bäume

IM PRATER BLÜH'N WIEDER DIE BÄUME (In the Prater the Trees Bloom Again) blends the destroyed and the lost and takes us straight back to the imperial era, to the still intact world of old Vienna. A varnish of colourful pictures of the Prater and the sugar-sweet melodies of Robert Stolz, who has returned from exile, tinsel the fragile Austrian narrative. (Ernst Kieninger)
