Tune Information

Author: Anton Wallerstein

Origin: Germany

A dance tune composed in 1846 as "Jenny Lind's Lieblings-Polka," by Anton Wallerstein (1813-1892) to commemorate the "Swedish Nightingale" Johanna Maria "Jenny" Lind (1820–1887). Lind was a famous and wildly popular operatic soprano that toured Europe and America, in later years earning huge sums of money for her performances. The melody was very popular and was published repeatedly, although often without Wallerstein's name.
