KOMAROWSKY, Emilie Comtesse

Emilie Comtesse Komarowsky (often appearing in German tracklistings as Emilie Comtesse Komarowsky) was a late 19th-century composer of light classical and Viennese salon music. While her biographical details are largely obscured by time, her music survived into the modern era through recordings of traditional Viennese salon ensembles. She is most notable for her contribution to the historic repertoire of "Wiener Melange" style music. "Fideles Wien" (Faithful Vienna), her most recognized piece is a march/waltz medley that captures the lighthearted energy of classic Austrian salon music.
