I've always loved this, AND jolie! I used to have the original 78rpm album, 4 record set of this, as well as a few other 78rpm albums of jolie. {1 song on each side of a record for those not familiar with old 78's, not to be confused with 45rpm's, which also typically had one song on each side. 45's were later, & vinyl. 78's were highly breakable} :)

Great post and wonderful background on the song.  You mention The Anniversary Song and this being a sequel.  Well it was in more ways than one.  The Anniversary Song was also based on the work of a classical composer, the Romanian Iosif Ivanovici.  And interesting, it was Waldteufel, whose orchestration of the Ivanovici work helped bring it to worldwide acclaim.  

Just one small thing, that should read Emile Waldteufel, whose last name translates from the German as Forest Devil.
